Silvertop where have you been???

Yes it's about time ....I dug through the Silver stack, and I found another in the series of North American Hunting Club/North American Big Game Silver rounds!πŸ€—

I remember saying that I only had the one Silver round the Big Horn Sheep......
These again are a series of 27 North American Hunting Club's proof Silver .999 rounds.

Now the Reverse of this Silver round has drawn a question from my friend @ronaldoavelino, about just why does an Eagle need that rifle to hunt........Any takers on that question...πŸ€”

This above photo is interesting, and this is for my good friend and fellow stacker and shadow photographer @silversaver888

So this is number 2 out of 27 in this .999 Fine Silver round collection the Alaskan Yukon Moose.
I was very surprised to find this Silver round, and I was even more surprised to find that these majestic creatures live up in my neck of the woods in Washington.

I would love to see one up close and personal!!!πŸ˜€

Of course this Silver round comes in the protective plastic capsule, and back it goes!!

Sure, the eagle is a hunting bird of prey, thus the rifle seems redundant but its more than a symbol to emphasize it's place in the food chain, this symbolic device an anthropomorphism representing a group, a purpose or an operational concept.
So with certain US Military divisions have Insignias that show an eagle with Lightning bolts, rifles, etc., and even missiles (nukes)!

My first thought is what could have possibly happened to the hunter?
An Eagle with a Barrett 50 Cal... you can't run far enough..... fast enough....

Where do you get all your fantastic silver! You have a select stack of silver art rounds and all are great strikes. I imagine that you are very picky with your silver, and that you put a lot of thought into buying the piece/pieces that you get from your LCS. Awesome addition to your stack, my friend! STACK ON!!!! There are 27 in that set!
Stay safe and take care @silvertop πŸ₯°πŸŒΊπŸ€™

These were an accidental find @silversaver888 πŸ˜‡
It looks to be a very nice set of 27 Silver rounds, how nice it would be to have the complete set!😊

It is a very nice set, seeing that the US Mint is not a "commercial" and for profit Mint (unlike other mints, LOL), this is the best set, I think, that shows American Wildlife, and appropriately sponsored by the Hunting Club, which makes it really special! You got the 999 fine silver ones... it is also available in silver-plated rounds, which are as pretty as the .999 fs.
And I love the shadow that you captured, my friend! Another lovely detail!πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ˜Š

I am glad that you liked this post @silversaver888, It would be nice to have the complete set. I checked into this series, and I also noticed that they had a plated version. That's a nice way to offer this collection at a low cost to collectors that might not care about the .999 fs........LoL are their people like that!πŸ˜‡πŸ™„
Gray skies and hard rain today, I don't think I will find any shadow's outside, but I couldn't resist the shadow on this Silver roundπŸ€—
Enjoy your evening my friend!πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜€
