COIN REVEAL: Special 10oz Kookaburra coins

Today's coin reveal post features some special 10oz Kookaburra coins that are well and truly entrenched in my keeper stack.

These 10oz coins were struck by The Perth Mint back 2003. These coins are part of the Evolutions series of coins. The two coins I am writing about are the same coin, but one of them is an individual 10oz coin in its own display case and shipper, whereas the other 10oz coin comes in a three coin display case. The two other coins that accompany the 10oz coin are the 2003 Kookaburra proof 2oz and 1oz coins.

I was looking through my coin photos this evening and I had to stop when I came across these 10oz coins. The funny thing is that I do it everytime, they always catch my eye and attention. This is a good thing and this is how I know that I really appreciate and love these coins.

I am sure you all have your own favourite or treasured coins in your personal stack. I would love for you to share some of them in the comments below for us all to enjoy and admire. 😲

Within the next month or so, we will finally be in our newly renovated house, I am so very excited for my new home office. This home office is going to become my engine room of creativity and I can't wait to take great photographs of my coins and write great articles on HIVE.

The past two years have been a huge struggle, as we have had such a disruptive time as a family, which has had a big impact on my ability to write and take photos. It has however taught me so much about perseverance and consistency.

Although it has been very difficult to find the time to photograph and write about my coins, I have still kept at it and continued to get content posted on HIVE.

This post that I am writing tonight for example was so close to not happening. We had a very busy day as a family getting things sorted for the house, then we got home and had dinner. After dinner the rain bucketed down which resulted in the quality of the mobile being really bad. I could not get photos downloaded, or web pages to load. I was totally about to give up and not bother about posting tonight, but I have set myself a personal goal to post everyday. My internal conscience just would not let me give up, it made me feel uncomfortable until I decided I had to make it work.

Eventually I moved to a location that had the faintest bit of mobile reception which allowed me to download the photos I wanted to use and get them uploaded to PEAKD.

It feels so good that I am sitting here writing this post. It is a real personal win and means I have remained true to my goal.
