Mermaids are real. At least in Linden’s world. Her love of science led to a career as a professional mermaid, which she uses to help kids learn about the ocean in a unique, fun way. Source of video snippet: Glam, Inc.

Isn't it a #beautifulsunday? And wouldn't it be a #sublimesunday to spend it swimming? I 🤗 L-O-V-E 🤗 beaches! Although I live far away from the beaches of California, and I swim for hours a week because my favorite thing to do every week is swimming laps!

And when it comes to silver coins and silver pieces, my favorite designs are those that are have meaning and significance in my life, such as American iconic designs, the Dragon because it is my Lunar Year Sign, the Lion because it my horoscope sign, Sailing Vessels which is a carryover from my brothers' interest for ships [both were officers of the Navy], and the mythical figure Mermaid, my icon as a precious metals stacker.

I've shown you The Mermaid silver round by the Intaglio Mint twice in the past and most recently when I won another one from a raffle. I am calling that as Part 1 of The Mermaid article mini-series which I will be showing the next succeeding #piratesunday [a famous tag in the Silver Gold Stackers community initiated by @stokjockey].

My hunch was correct. So that WAS the piece that you got from Kevin at Mutiny Metals, except I was thinking you'd get the 5 oz size Mermaid and cover for #fiveouncefriday too.
Hee hee! I giggle to myself thinking about it.
Always, with a Mermaid's song and with love ... 🌺 💝 🌹 💓 🌸 🌼

I wonder how true it is that they found a dead mermaid... did you see that YouTube video and photos of the thing?
I wish I could get all the silver in my goal list, sis. I have to be more disciplined... and I really want to complete the tube of fractional gold by the middle of 2021. I need to pick and choose... and you do know that I really stack coins... ASE, US Constitutional and fractional gold... not hand-poured silver. I think I am getting better staying away from hand-poured silver, but it has been difficult. Next year... I really will be just a gold saver. But have I been saying that for years now?
Have a great 2 days off, my lively sis @kerrislravenhill. Take care 🥰🌺🤙, lots of love💓💝 and a million and one Hugs and Kisses 🤗💕💋!

Yes I did, and there are plenty of YT fakery including alleged video evidence of live ones too.
I think mermaids are very fond of gold with all that treasure sinking to the bottom of the oceans ever since ships began to carry treasure.
I think I will picture you as a Mermaid that collects gold and goes swimming often in her little pool.

I am very happy to have been introduced to a Professional Mermaid.

I bet you would, LOL! They are amazing. I actually met three professional mermaids at the Dive Bar of Sacramento, CA. Look them up on the web!
Have a great evening, my friend @ronavel 🥰🌺🤙

That's awesome @silversaver888, and she can hold her breath up to FIVE minutes...that is so incredible!😀
It looks like she is having a fun time at what she does for a career!
The two Oz bar from Kevin of Mutiny Metals, is a one of a kind, so very nice🤗
I hope you are enjoying your new lap pool my friend, take care and have a wonderful evening!!😍😍😀

The South Sea Pearl divers of old... they can amazingly hold their breath and go down to the deep seafloor to get those large pearls! I was just telling @ronavel that I actually met three professional mermaids at the Dive Bar of Sacramento, CA. They are very graceful in the water. I high school, I tried synchronize swimming. That too is a beautiful and graceful sport, like gymnastics. Yes, it is really nice to have that pool, and very glad that friends can enjoy the pool with me too.
The Mermaid bar is really nice!
Have a wonderful week ahead, and take care, my friend @silvertop 🥰🌺🤙

I recall stories of the South Sea perl divers when I was a kid. Everyone I knew as a kid, me included, learned to swim at a very early age. I remember we all timed ourselves underwater, and none of us could stay under THAT long.....
Just amazing @silversaver888!!!😀
Enjoy the evening my friend!!😍😍😀

WOW.. 😍 OMG sis this piece is just gorgeous... I love mermaids alot but this is definitly above anything I have or seen.
Thank you for sharing and Congrats on such amazing poured silver.
Have a wonderful evening, much love 🤗❤️🌹

it is a beautiful hand-poured silver by Kevin. It is wonderful that we have stackers who are willing to share their art with us. It keeps silver stacking boredom away, hehe. But many times, I have to remind myself of my personal stacking goals so that I am able to stay away from all the beautiful shinies... and I often tell myself: "Just enjoy looking . You do not have to have that one." 🤣
Have a #sublimesunday, my sweet stacking sis, take care and lots of love 🥰🌺🤙

I have one Siren coin, but not as nice as this one, awesome mermaid

There are very few Siren/Mermaid coins... very few that exist and that I like anyway. Of course, Palau makes numerous Mermaid coins, but I really do not care much about their design with the mermaid's bosom uncovered, and it is not done in good taste. Besides, the coins are not readily available in silver... all cupro-nickel. I think I have an idea as to what coin that is that you have because you called in Siren. I will show that one next #piratesunday, and I will tag you!
Jave a #sublimesunday and a great week ahead, my friend @djohan, and take care 🥰🌺🤙

Wow... that's cool.
I met my own version in Singapore before too.
https://hive.blog/til/@ace108/today-i-learn-more-about-singapore-mermaid-or-by-ace108
She run a sort of School for Mermaid and participated in the Miss Singapore pageant few years ago.

WOW, she is one beautiful and exotic looking mermaid!!! A school for mermaids! How cool is that! I hear that there are mermaid conventions and well attended by mermaid aficionados worldwide. So interesting! I too have met three professional mermaids... and we have that it common, @ace108, in addition for our love fo food and eating, LOL!
Have a #beautifulsunday day, my friend, and take care 🥰🌺🤙.

The silver mermaid piece is very cool as is the little chest! You have some very unique silver sweet sis! I began my journey as a stacker when my husband took me to the LCS to see 'the pretty pictures' on the silver rounds. I was hooked. Thanks for sharing sis! Take care and have a wonderful evening!😍🌸🤗💕

I know right?! I came across videos of stackers on YouTube, and they had hordes of silver. An elderly stacker had dinner table with high mounds of US COnstitutional coins... and that was the one image that is stuck in my brains forever. That was the one image that convinced me to "buy" silver and convert my fiat into savings of silver and gold. That was when I realized just how much money I have spent in fluff and worthless stuff.
Have a terrific week my sweet sis, @elizabethbit. Take care 🥰🌺🤙, lots of hugs and love 🤗💕.
