Friendly bump for exposure with an Imgur Album of some graded Silver coins I've picked up recently (the coin listed here is also in this group).

Hey guys, this is my first Auction I've done here. Bid in many, never held one on here. I think I have the basics down pretty well though. But please let me know if I've missed anything.  Smiley
Silver Norfed Liberty Dollars are some of my favorites to stack/collect/buy/sell/trade along with physical Bitcoins and Silver Chinese Pandas!

Up for Auction today is an ANACS graded PF-62 DCAM 2003 1/2 oz Silver Norfed Liberty Dollar, as well as an official Norfed Liberty Dollar brochure, a "Liberty Merchant Handbook", and a $20 Silver base Norfed business card.

The 2003 1/2 oz. $5 Liberty Dollar is one of only three 1/2 oz. Silver type-pieces ever created by Norfed. Norfed created the 1/2 oz. Liberty Dollars to meet demand for smaller, fractional Liberty Dollars to be used/spent/bartered for smaller purchases. The others are a 2005 $10 Liberty Dollar, and a 2008 $10 Peace Dollar. The 2003 1/2 oz. coin I have listed here can be found in the Liberty Dollar Encyclopedia, it is the first coin detailed on this page: https://sites.google.com/site/libertydollarencyclopedia/1-2-oz-silver-1

This coin is graded PF62 (Proof 62) DCAM by ANACS. DCAM stands for "Deep Cameo," which refers to the looks of a proof coin, where the background design has a mirror like look and the raised design has a frosted look to it. Deep Cameo means that this contrast is very pronounced and easily observed.

The brochure is a Liberty Dollar brochure released in 2007, and it is in great condition. The pamphlet describes basic information about the Liberty Dollar currency and how it works, and explains inflation and the drop in value of the US Dollar in comparison. It is very interesting and informative, and is a must-have for any Liberty Dollar collection. This brochure is #7 here: https://sites.google.com/site/libertydollarencyclopedia/brochures

The "Liberty Merchant Handbook" is a guidebook that was given out to any merchants that agreed to accept the Liberty Dollar for purchases of their goods, or in "barter" for their goods & services. It gives information about how to accept the Liberty Dollar, how to give it out in change, how to inform customers about the LD currency, and lists some benefits that becoming a "Liberty Merchant" could have on their community. This handbook is in great condition as well.

Also included is a "$20 Silver Base" business card for Norfed and the Liberty Dollar.

Brief Back Story (for those who don't know): Forming in 1998, Norfed (National Organization for the Repeal of the FEDeral Reserve and the Internal Revenue Code) sought out to create an alternative circulating currency that was actually backed by real value (i.e.- Gold, Silver, Platinum), unlike the US Dollar which had lost its gold & silver backing and became only a paper fiat currency. From 1998 to 2007, Norfed produced and sold Silver and Gold "Liberty Dollars" and encouraged them to be circulated and spent within buyers' local communities. Liberty Dollars had been minted by Sunshine Minting, the same mint that produces many of the planchets that the US gov. uses for their own coins, and each coin was minted with a "Proof" quality strike, although Bernard von Nothaus (Norfed founder) did not like to refer to them as Proof coins since they were intended for circulation. In late 2007, the FBI and Secret Service raided Liberty Dollar offices and Sunshine Minting and seized millions of dollars worth of Norfed's and customers' Gold, Silver, and Platinum, in addition to almost 2 tons of Silver "Ron Paul Dollars" they had just created for the Anti-Fed. Reserve US Senator and then presidential hopeful Ron Paul. Bernard von Nothaus was indicted (along with 3 others) and charged with several Federal crimes, and the US basically said he was counterfeiting US coins and attempting to pass them.
Anyways, it's a fascinating story and a reasoning that I think many Bitcoin supporters can understand. Read More here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_Dollar
