Few silver rounds can claim the level of community involvement and significance as the 2018 1oz Steem Silver Round. More than just a collector’s piece, this round symbolises the power of decentralised collaboration and the innovation behind blockchain technology. Designed by members of the Steemit community, this coin represents a fusion of creativity, shared passion, and a tangible connection to the Steemit ecosystem.
**A unique coin for a unique platform**
Steemit is a blockchain-based social media platform where users earn STEEM cryptocurrency for posting and curating content. It rewards engagement and long-term commitment, making it an ideal breeding ground for community-led projects. The 2018 Steem Silver Round, known as the "Communi-Tree" round, is one such project—a physical representation of the community’s vision, brought to life through dedication and teamwork.
Designed by me,
@welshstacker, and produced through the efforts of
@welshstacker and
@welshstacker, the round was minted by the North American Mint with a strictly limited mintage of 1,500 pieces. Each round is individually numbered, comes in a protective capsule, and includes a matching certificate of authenticity (COA), making it a truly special addition to any collection.
This round is struck in .999 fine silver, weighing 1 troy ounce, and has a diameter of 39mm. It features a reeded edge with an engraved COA number, ensuring that each piece is unique and easily verifiable. The Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) finish highlights the intricate details of the design, making it a striking piece that appeals to both investors and numismatic collectors alike.
**A design with hidden secrets**
While the Communi-Tree design itself is a bold representation of the Steemit community’s interconnectedness, it also holds a deeper mystery. Embedded within the artwork are hidden Easter eggs—subtle details that remain undiscovered or unexplained. These concealed elements add another layer of intrigue to the round, offering collectors a fun challenge as they attempt to uncover its hidden messages.
For those passionate about silver stacking, blockchain technology, or unique numismatic pieces, this round is more than just silver—it is a statement of innovation and shared purpose. Owning one is not only an investment in fine metal but also a piece of history from a pioneering blockchain community.
**A Lasting symbol of decentralisation and ingenuity**
The 2018 1oz Steem Silver Round continues to stand as a testament to the creativity and collective effort of the Steemit community. As a physical embodiment of decentralised ideals, it bridges the gap between digital currency and tangible assets, proving that real-world impact can emerge from online collaboration.
For those fortunate enough to own one of these rounds, it remains a reminder of what is possible when like-minded individuals unite for a common goal. And for those yet to examine its design in detail—perhaps the challenge still remains. Have you found all the hidden secrets?
