A Coin From A Raffle And 4 Years On The Blockchain.

This cool coin came to me in the mail a few weeks ago from a raffle here on Hive.

About a month ago @summertooth did a raffle that started out for just this 2 Real coin from Guatemala. He got way more entries then he had planned for so decided to add another coin for a second spin of the wheel. I was lucky enough to win the first spin and got this cool old coin in the mail a few weeks ago.

There is nothing like holding a shiny uncirculated coin but I think these older circulated coins have much more character. The wear they have just shows they have been used and makes you think about the travels and places it has been.

On another note, this week I was notified about my Hivaversary.

Time flies so fast it doesn't seem like it has been 4 years already. It still feels like it wasn't long ago the hard fork came and that was over 3 years ago.

That's a cool coin! Circulated coins make you wonder just who has held this coin in their hands over the last 150 years. Pretty awesome!

Thanks!
Yes, these old coins may have many of the same design but each
one is unique in what ever wear and damage it has.
