“The root problem with conventional currency is all the trust that’s required to make it work. The central bank must be trusted not to debase the currency, but the history of fiat currencies is full of breaches of that trust. Banks must be trusted to hold our money and transfer it electronically, but they lend it out in waves of credit bubbles with barely a fraction in reserve. We have to trust them with our privacy, trust them not to let identity thieves drain our accounts.” — Satoshi Nakamoto

I love this quote from the movie Apocalypse Now, said by Colonel Kurtz/Marlon Brando:
"I went down that river once when I was a kid. There's a place in that river - I can't remember - must have been a gardenia plantation at one time. It's all wild and overgrown now, but about five miles, you'd think that heaven just fell on the earth in the form of gardenias. Have you considered any real freedoms? Freedoms from the opinions of others. Even the opinions of yourself."

"I remember I was hammering on a fence in the backyard when Dad approached. He was carrying a letter or something in his hand, and he looked worried. I continued to hammer as he came toward me. "Son," he said, "why are you hammering on that fence? It already has plenty of nails in it." "Oh, I'm not using nails," I replied. "I'm just hammering." With that, I returned to my hammering. Dad asked me to stop hammering, as he had some news. I did stop hammering, but first I got a couple more hammers in, and this seemed to make Dad mad. "I said, stop hammering!" he yelled. I think he felt bad for yelling at me, especially since it looked like he had bad news. "Look," he said, "you can hammer later, but first-" Well, I didn't even wait to hear the rest. As soon as I heard "You can hammer," that's what I started doing. Hammering away, happy as an old hammer dog. Dad tried to physically stop me from hammering by inserting a small log of some sort between my hammer and the fence. But I just kept on hammering, 'cause that's the way I am when I get that hammer going. Then, he just grabbed my arm and made me stop. "I'm afraid I have some news for you," he said. I swear, what I did next was not hammering. I was just letting the hammer swing lazily at arm's length, and maybe it tapped the fence once or twice, but that's all. That apparently didn't make any difference whatsoever to Dad, because he just grabbed my hammer out of my hand and flung it across the field. And when I saw my hammer flying helplessly through the air like that, I just couldn't take it. I burst out crying, I admit it. And I ran to the house, as fast as my legs could take me. "Son, come back!" yelled Dad. "What about your hammer?!" But I could not have cared less about hammering at that point. I ran into the house and flung myself onto my bed, pounding the bed with my fists. I pounded and pounded, until finally, behind me, I heard a voice. "As long as you're pounding, why not use this?" I turned, and it was Dad, holding a brand-new solid-gold hammer. I quickly wiped the tears from my eyes and ran to Dad's outstretched arms. But suddenly, he jumped out of the way, and I went sailing through the second-story window behind him. Whenever I hear about a kid getting in trouble with drugs, I like to tell him this story."

Reagan once said:

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.

Free Raffle Giveaway!!!

Since the donations weren't used for the Cold Key victims and returned to the donators, I wanted to give the community a chance to acquire one of Caribbean Treasures rare test strikes!

These aren't normally released to the public, because they are only made to test the die strike before a full run. The die says 7.77 Grams Fine AG which is true for the silver released run, but the test strikes are made using 999 copper and they are on thinner planchets. This piece weighs only 3.8 grams and is 20mm in diameter. A little smaller than the size of a USA Jefferson nickel. Hologram #BF002

Only 2 Rules:
1. Comment your name and only 1 number that hasn't been chosen yet to be part of the giveaway.
2. Post your favorite "Liberty" or "Freedom" quote. It can be from a movie or from a historical figure. It can even be your own. Smiley


I will choose a block to declare the winner after a few weeks.

It will be sent to MJ to be slabbed, shipped out and will all be paid for by CT.

This all comes down to freedom for me and I want the quotes to remind everyone of the spirit of freedom. It will bring you closer together when you have a common goal.



𒂼𒄄 is ancient Sumerian cuneiform text. It sounds like ama-gi and translates to "Freedom". Exemption from debts or obligations and to release from debt, slavery and taxation.

Good Luck
