    Hello everyone,
    I wanted to share what I received through my Vault Box purchase.
    I didn't know what to expect and was really pleased with this gold coin :joyful:

    Yeah, I'm not a gambler - but if I had gone in on VaultBox, and that was one of the coins I received, it might be harder for me to stay strong.

    The inspiration here should be to walk away and never do it again. Lightning striking twice and all that.

    Very nice coin in that holocore slab, Edwin! Did you buy this on the aftermarket? Series 9 release would have been in February.

    Is it made of Chocolate or did you find it metal detecting in the Tundra? :smuggrin:
