12 days of Christmas - saving the best for last...
As the festive season draws near, there’s no better way to celebrate than with a bit of shiny inspiration! For the next 12 days, I’ll be sharing my very own 12 Days of Christmas Countdown, featuring the precious metals I’d love to find under the tree this year. This idea was first dreamt up by a long-time #silvergoldstackers community member and good friend, @silverd510, and it pairs beautifully with our annual #SecretSanta project, where members exchange silver and gold gifts anonymously. Find both original posts here 👉 silverd510 and the #secretsanta 👈 there.....
Originally designed to showcase a growing wishlist, the concept had one rule: the gifts should increase in value as the days progress, culminating on Day 12 with your "holy grail"—the ultimate unattainable piece. It’s a brilliant way to share your wish list and perhaps even give your mystery sender a nudge in the right direction. So, grab a warm drink, and join me each day as I unveil the coins, bars, and rounds I’m dreaming Santa will deliver this Christmas!
Day 12: The Iconic #Silversaver Bars – A Tribute to Community and Connection
For the twelfth and final day of this year’s 12 Days of Christmas Wishlist, I’m reaching for something truly special, something that embodies the heart and soul of the silver stacking community: the #Silversaver Bars.
These iconic 1oz hand-poured silver bars, created by our very own @silversaver888, have been a symbol of camaraderie, friendship, and the bonds formed within the stacking community. Over the years, they’ve become a badge of honour for OG silver stackers, not just for their tangible beauty but for what they represent—generosity, shared passion, and the early spirit of a burgeoning silver stacking movement.
I still vividly remember watching Silversaver’s YouTube giveaways back in the day, admiring the elegance of these bars and wishing I could be lucky enough to win one. Her kindness and creativity inspired so many of us, and her bars have since taken on legendary status among collectors. You couldn’t simply buy them; they were gifted as a token of friendship, a gesture that made them all the more precious.
While I don’t know exactly how many designs exist, the allure of these bars lies not only in their rarity but in their story. Each bar is a tangible reminder of the community’s generosity and the unbreakable bond among stackers. They’re more than just silver—they’re a symbol of the shared journey that brought us all together.
Some might argue that, in terms of monetary value, hand-poured silver—especially pieces weighing just 1oz—can’t compete with larger, flashier coins or rare collectibles. But for me, these bars are priceless. They sit at the very top of my wishlist, not because of their intrinsic value but because of what they mean: a legacy of kindness, creativity, and the connections we’ve built as a community.
So here’s to the #Silversaver Bars, and to the joy and nostalgia they bring. Thank you for following along with my 12 Days of Christmas Challenge—I hope you’ve enjoyed this journey through the coins, bars, and rounds that have captured my imagination. Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and happy stacking!
