#piratesunday: Dogecoin profits taken off the Table and a Liberian Silver coin

”I’m a Silver Pirate and no scurvy Financial advisor.” ~ The Bloody Raven

It’s been well over a month since Elon Musk made the Twitter endorsement elevating the Dogecoin price to lofty heights never seen before. Crypto-Shibes on Reddit, Discord, Twitter and everywhere else in between are reaping huge windfalls of the sudden capital appreciation but how long will it last?

Fast forward to today, Dogecoin has settled into a holding pattern between 5 and 5.8 cents per coin regardless of the recent BTC/Crypto wide selloff or subsequent Tweets by Elon. It was still deep into profit territory since I acquired the coins free a few years ago by Faucets alone.

In agreement with a friend’s suggestion, I warmed up my old Dogecoin wallet, then I signed up on Binance and sent tranches of Dogecoin into this Exchange. Other than trading loose crypto change on Discord, this is my first-time trading on an official exchange shifting from my pure HODL strategy up to now.

It was inevitable, but I was excited.
My objective is to take off 20 to 25% off the table for some shopping rewards and set a percentage aside perhaps to beef up my Hive/Leo power. The remainder in my updated cold wallet, and offline.

Binance has a few very useful tutorials if you are a Trading Newbie like me, the trading Interface Screen is laid out logically and reasonably intuitive. It wasn’t difficult to understand after selling a few initial tranches I settled into choosing positions to maximize my liquidation of Dogecoin into BTC and LTC. Litecoin being my favorite Shopping Coin.

Withdrawing my LTC funds was a bit frustrating but once I understood how their 2-factor Authorization was done the funds are transferred to my mobile wallet. And a Shopping I will go!
What did I get?



Wasn’t the cool studded leather collar with the Victorian cameo I’ve been sizing up lately. They don’t accept Crypto yet.


Apmex and Provident metals accepts BTC only from addys from the Continental USA.


I know just the place.


I’ll let you know when I get the first shipment!


Since it is supposed to be #piratesunday, do I have a coin to show while we are here.

The Silver coin

The Republic of Liberia is located on the West coast of Africa of 43,000 Sq Miles. The first Independent Republic of the entire African continent. And a unique history as a Republic beginning as a colony established by the American Colonization Society (ACS) to repatriate freed slaves and freeborn Black Americans to Africa following the American Civil War.



It was a solution option developed by for those that remained oppressed to voluntarily return to make a home in Africa and begin anew. A wealthy free-born Black American named Joseph Jenkins Roberts from Virginia also settled in Liberia was elected as Liberia's first president after the people proclaimed independence in 1847.

The 19th Century ship represents the ships which bought the Freed slaves from America to Liberia. The Tree represents prosperity in providing shelter and food. The Wheelbarrow, formerly a plow and shovel, represents dignity in labor and hard work yielding prosperity. The rising sun representing a birth of a nation. And the white dove with a scroll representing the Breath of peace.

In all, more than 18,000 individuals partook in that option and arrived to settle in areas they named Mississippi-in-Africa, Kentucky-in-Africa, and Republic of Maryland bringing their American culture with them. Then later merging together forming the Republic of Liberia with a flag and constitution modelling that of the United States of whom most had left behind. The free African American colonists became collectively known as Americo-Liberians holding most of the power. They did not have much in common with the local indigenous tribal majority. They knew nothing of the local traditions, customs, religion and were distinct from the indigenous Liberians that felt estranged from their own land. And this is where the conflict centers about since the colonial years of the Republic of Liberia resulting in at least two civil wars and in the deaths of tens of thousands in the struggle for unity.

Reference KM# 645

For the purpose of State business, “Air Force One” is technically an official Call-Sign as well as indicating the presence of the President of the United States on board. A mobile Command center also serves as a bunker being structurally designed to be much tougher than a conventional 707. Capable of flying indefinitely, achieve a maximum altitude of 45,000 ft and an air speed of 600 miles per hour, features armored fuselage and windows with likely to have more defensive capabilities that are kept top secret.
This plane accommodates up to 70 people, 4000 sq.ft of floor space, three floors, conference room, office, a gym, a bathroom with shower, two kitchens, a medical suite always attended by a physician. There are two of these planes available for service.



A peace was finally agreed upon in August 2003 with an interim government until an internationally approved free election was held in 2005. Liberia remains largely impoverished with plenty of past issues yet to be resolved but continue to have a fully functioning democracy. The current President is a former football star George Weah.

A lovely inexpensive silver bullion coin on an impulse buy!

Great idea. I need Bitcoin to hit 58K again so my tiny amount can buy what I’m eyeing.

That may help my little splinter of a BTC too.
At least we have some.
I can almost buy 2 ASEs with my Discord wallet BTC balance but not enough to cover shipping.

Thanks for dropping in @silverd510

Started way back in 2014 collecting these for fun with almost 200k.
When the price reached almost $0.01 I bought these Silver Dogecoins.

Now these original Silver Doge are selling for big $$$!
Gave away a bunch of Dogecoin on Steem Engine and swapped some Doge for Steem.
Never thought it would be at $0.05 at all, so why not skim off 20-25% and buy something I wouldn't normally buy?
What I got will be in a later blog.

Thanks for dropping by @summertooth , "To the Moon!"

You may have missed my post on that Dogecoin I seemed to have struck another Motherlode discovering that this original Official issue 2014 Silver 100 Doge with COA selling on Ebay for no less than $300 USD. Even got offers when I posted on IG. I really lucked out!

I love the obverse of that coin. It is 10 dollars, yet it is the size of a dime or a quarter?
Good for you! Good things happen to those who wait!

Hugs and Kisses 🥰🌺🤙!

At 30mm Diameter the size is between the Quarter and the Half dollar and importantly passed the CCT silver slide test.

Waiting for the order I made with the proceeds of my windfall. It's coming from a reputable overseas retailer who accepts Crypto payment so it may take a while. Leaving me with another $500 to spend elsewhere they accept Crypto payment.

Always, with Sisterly love!

Glad to see you took the Binance plunge @kerrislravenhill!😀
I guess because you are North of the border you can trade with the original Binance. Down here, they want us to switch to the Binance.us.
I think it's a good trading platform, and I also downloaded the extension for Binance smart chain!😀

Binance.us or the original Binance, I'm not up too speed of the differences between the two but I'm sure there is more regulation and taxes involved. I got my 4 CUB tokens on my Trust Wallet address but have yet to Stake it in the 'Den" so I haven't done this BNB smart chain extension yet. I went as far as to claim the airdrop and figure it out later.

What I bought with my profits will be an exotic overseas bar that has relevance to a part of my family tree.

Appreciate your Comment @silvertop

The underdog Dogecoin has been so good to me.
Hard to believe getting thousands of these free and reaching 5 cent per coin.
What I got so far is an exotic vintage 10 Bar from overseas I don't think is ever been seen on Hive or Steem. In normal circumstances I wouldn't buy such a bar.
It is not like this Gairsoppa, JM or Silvergoldbull 10 oz bars.

Your comment is always appreciated Sis @elizabethbit
I still have another $500 to spend!

Just watching the Numbers change and the candlesticks move.
Sort of mesmerizing in real time.
I find it hard to believe Dogecoin can be worth 5 cents each and stay there!

Still have 70k+ Left, maybe wait for Elon to announce that we can buy the base Tesla with Dogecoin!
But Dogecoin has to hit 50 cents for me to buy one. Pump it Elon!
You think that can happen?

Thanks for commenting @fat-elvis

What do you know. I should have been collecting these Dogecoin too. You had good foresight and instincts about this coin even while I had huge doubts about it. I am glad it paid off for you. That's my girl, the credit all belongs to you!
Looking forward to the Unboxing!

If you only knew what I just bought.
Better if I didn't tell you until it comes in the mail!
I know you will be impressed!

And it will be better than a Johnson Mathey bar!
