My first post. Favourite S&G contest.

Hi Guys,

I'm Ag Scots Kiwi, I'm an expat Scot living in beautiful New Zealand.

This is my first post, so please be kind!

I have only been stacking silver since mid March, but a few weeks ago I passed my first goal of 100 ounces silver!😊

This is a video response of sorts to @generation.easy contest for your favourite silver or gold piece.
This was a hard one for me so many gorgeous coins out there and I swithered between a choice of two coins at the moment. The first being the 1oz Dragon and Phoenix coin and the second is my 1oz Laughing Owl coin.

and the winner is...

The 1oz Laughing Owl

I really like this coins details, I'm just so sorry that my photography skills do not do it justice!😐

The other reason this coin is my favorite at the moment is because I was given this coin by my kids for mothers day.

If you remembered I said this was a video response of sorts! Well I did do a video on this coin a couple of months back on my you tube channel so if you want to see this coin in a bit more detail check out the video below⤵

Anyways that's my entry to this competition and to posting on steemit! Thanks for bearing with me.

Bye for now!

Sweet coin. 1500 mintage, definitely, puts it in the scarce category, too.

Yes it's an all round nice coin!

Great first post agscotskiwi.
More about the laughing owl.
The laughing owl coin is the fourth in the New Zealand Annual Coin series that features extinct species of New Zealand. Around four times the size of its modern day relative the morepork, the laughing owl became extinct around 100 years ago
These coins are available from https://coins.nzpost.co.nz/new-zealand/2017/annual-coin-laughing-owl

Thanks for checking my post out @silverkiwi
And thanks for the additional information on the coin series. 😊👍

Smart coin, not seen it before. I can see why its called laughing owl, you know when youve had a laughing fit and just manage to catch your breath and teetering on the verge of exploding, well thats the look i see on the owls face.

Never thought of it like that!😂
Cheers Russell👍

I can't believe this is your first actual post, you've been busy around here commenting for a while.i love this coin man, can't say I've ever seen it before.

Yup! I've been on awhile now think i started around the same time as GA, only ever commenting tho' never posting! Thanks for the up vote and comment!👍

Great way to get your blogging off the mark. Love this coin, the detail is amazing. 100 oz already!! OK you're putting me to shame, think I better pull my finger out.

I think it helps that I bought a tube of eagles right at the start of my stacking I have changed my style from anything shiny to a few proofs and some nice poured, no doubt it will change again tho thinking I need to get some more gold in the stack but it's just so expensive and you see how many silver ones you get for the same money there's no contest for me! I appreciate the comment and up vote! 😊

Spectacular coin! Wow what a stunner! I love owls. Amazing first post. I'll have to make sure to sub your Yt channel

Thanks GA! Not done much on yt lately.

I have also made this post where I explain my experience with the service in more depth and show how I earn over $1 a day in upvotes.
