This is a common misconception about silver, many invest in silver to keep their wealth, not grow it. 
Remember, you haven't lost anything until you cash out, so if you can afford to hold it, do so until the time is right, one day silver will be worth more than you paid for it, whether that same money would be worth even more than that if it had been invested in something else is anyone's guess. 

The Arkenstone

Received this beauty of a coin from @lxy70713. Very unique and a PAMP creation too.
Like a few before me,  Thanks to @trp, @ChrisSilver, @Bullionbilly and all those that took part!
Merry Christmas everyone!!
 

Sexy coin

Aha awesome maybe tomorrow is my day. 

Donation made on behalf of @Yetiwatch, who generously requested that the money I was offering via bank transfer was donated to Alzheimer's Research UK instead.

This is still to play for:

I completely forgot to update what my prize would be but now might keep it as a surprise for the winner  

The draws will take place in December. The results will likely be released in 4 different segments, as there are about 4 weeks before Christmas, but will be left down to @trp for him to decide when to release the results and how many. @trp will be announcing the ticket numbers in batches which were generated using excel and then randomised using excel to create a list of who is giving which prize to who. This topic will also be unlocked so members can post here, include photos of when their prize arrives, if they would like to post a photo or to say thanks  

Note that members whose tickets are drawn nearer to Christmas, that the sender may not be able to post until after Christmas. So please be patient in receiving your prize, please also be patient if your prize is coming from overseas as there may be some delays during the holiday season with different countries having different holiday timetables. 

Note that the numbers drawn will be one direction only. Meaning the ticket number of the member giving the prize, and the ticket number of a member receiving the prize. You do not swap prizes with this person, it is one direction only. The giver will have their ticket number drawn as a winning ticket number from a different member.

An example of how the prize announcements will work:

Member X with ticket number 10 gives their prize to Member Y with ticket number 13

Member B with ticket number 12 gives their prize to Member X with ticket number 10

Member Y with ticket number 13  gives their prize to Member B with ticket number 12



If any further clarification or help is needed please feel free to message me or @trp  


Good luck to everyone who entered and thank you for joining in the TSF Christmas festivities and for supporting TSF with Premium Membership so we can grow.

I'd like to enter please.  Complete edit:  I will offer a choice of 1 x 1oz Silver round from the choices below and also 1x 1oz Copper round from the choices below
Silver choices:
1oz Big cats are dangerous
1oz Bull Bear
1oz Freedom girl
1oz Niue AOE
Copper:
1 AVDP oz Freedom girl

Not meaning to offend anyone with the big cats round.  Some may like the humour and others not hence the choice. 
If there's any issue about not being allowed to enter with a choice of prize than I define the prize as being a 1oz Bull Bear silver round until advised otherwise by the winner. 

Just added my gift to my original post

Honestly sometimes it is just hard to grab a coin or something in that nature. I reckon some people don't want to give a piece of something they own like their own 1 oz like some of us do. In addition some people are not fans of paying 20% VAT on silver from certain sites. It is preference I guess, I aim to buy from tsf always. 

I have always wanted one of these. 

Don't want to overcomplicate things. It is up to the giver of the prize to choose the item they wish to give or an alternative prize with the minimum cash value outlined in the conditions of entry, or indeed cash itself  if they wish. 

For those who have decided to give cash as the prize, there is no reason why the winner can't then use the received cash to order something from @BackyardBullion

Please report your entry post if you would actually like to withdraw from the Prize Draw, and the moderation team can hide that post. Otherwise it may accidentally be included when the list is created sometime after this topic closes. The amount of cash prizes compared to items in the draw is low, so there is more chance of getting an item.

Having a different range of prizes is part of the fun, to see what you win  

It is supposed to be something fun for members to partake in, should they wish. 

I'm in.  How about a set of 20th century 90% U.S. coinage.  Dimes to dollars, Barber design onward.  I'll make it at least 4 oz ASW.

I have always wanted one of these. 

I'll will do 2 x 1 oz silver random coins. 

It is just great as anything else is a surprise 😁 and don't worry your not alone there my Mrs is the same 🤣

I love how you say maybe, the thing I enjoy most about this Christmas secret santa is... We think more on what we can give then receive aha. I literally thought the same last year, did a little shop as well thinking hmm maybe I should get this and that.. My missus just gave me a look as to say your not this excited about getting me stuff. Lol kidding.
