RE: A Mansion & The Silver Dollar Minted The Year It Was Built.

Wow! You did it. The looong wait was worth it. That's one big mansion indeed. And the trees! They must have been planted at the same time the mansion was built. They're humongous. I wonder what the inside looks like. I noticed a jar in one of the windows. And an inscription of the initials WB. Definitely not Warren Buffet lol.
I also enjoyed the silver dollar coin. Sold at over $3,500. That's 3,500 percent appreciation in 141 years or a 24 percent annual return on simple interest basis. Wow. No financial institute can beat that. I have a collection of old coins too. This gives me hope though I wouldn't be around to enjoy the returns but maybe my great grandkids he he.
Thanks for sharing this awesome Wednesday Walk.
Yes, I did it! I am glad that you liked this article @gems.and.cookies and happy that you found it (because if you didn't come to view it, I'd for sure be hounding you to come over, LOL😆😂😅! Nope, it does not belong to Warren Buffet, but perhaps the current owners listen to WB's financial advice.. who knows, LOL.
One of my regrets, when I visited your country, was I did not go to the local coin shops to hunt for silver. Do you know that the US Mint, particularly the San Francisco Mint produced all the silver coins of the Philippines? But I do have many of your circulating clad coins as well as some of your paper currency.
This is a 5-COIN UNC SET 1944-45 WORLD WAR II currently available in the secondary market here, 3 are silver coins!
Have a beautiful day, my friend, and take care 🥰🌺🤙
I would not have missed that for the world. It's not everytime one gets to see history right in their own homes. Awesome.
If the owners follow WB's financial advise, then they'd surely be off crypto currency as WB is not so keen about it.
It's amazing that you would have in your possession old minted Philippine coins. I did mention that I have some collections of old coins too (well actually my wife does, most of them she got from her grandmother) and guess what I discovered? We actually have some of those 5-coin UNC set you showed above with the same year too. Can you believe that? What more, my wife's collection has One Peso coin minted in 1907 and a Fifty Centavo coin minted in 1918. Attaching pictures of these. The peso coin still needs some cleaning, though.
Have a beautiful and safe day too @silversaver888. Hope you enjoyed my wife's collection as well.
Oh WOW!!!! That is impressive! You have so many silver coins there!!! Should I visit your place, we can trade silver!!! Many stackers here do not clean coins. The only "cleaning" I do for my circulated coins that need "cleaning" is only to run them in warm soapy water and pat dry. But for brilliant uncirculated coins, I don't touch them with my bare hands. I use cotton gloves. I also keep them encapsulated, or in the case of the American Silver Eagles that I stack, I just immediately put them inside the tube and not mess with them at all. I have not opened any of my completed tubes of Silver Eagles since last I put the lid on upon completing the tube.
Your wife's grandma knew the value of precious metals, so I bet she had lots of 24K gold jewelry too.
Thank you for sharing your silver coins, @gems.and.cookies. That is really amazing nd a pleasant surprise! 🥰🌺🤙
