This year my wife and I will celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. As everyone knows, that is the "SILVER" wedding anniversary. My wife has no interest in coins, numismatics, or PM other than the odd bit of jewellery (sound familiar ?) With my interest in silver generally, I cant let the opportunity go by of not giving her a gift of silver in some form or another. Anybody have any great ideas ? I suspect this may not be the first time the subject has been brought up on the forum.
First off , well done on 25 years. That is a great milestone to reach. How about a wedding photo in a silver frame? A silver goblet each and a bottle of the wine you had on your wedding night?
The 2015 Kookaburra coin has a P25 mint mark. (Perfect 25) Perhaps your wife may like the Kilo Proof coin. http://www.perthmint.com.au/catalog...kookaburra-2015-1-kilo-silver-proof-coin.aspx or The 1oz Proof. http://www.perthmint.com.au/catalog...kaburra-2015-one-ounce-silver-proof-coin.aspx Buy it for your-self. Edit Maybe Fortuna (Latin: Fortna, equivalent to the Greek goddess Tyche) was the goddess of fortune and personification of luck in Roman religion. She might bring good luck or bad: she could be represented as veiled and blind, as in modern depictions of Justice, and came to represent life's capriciousness. She was also a goddess of fate: as Atrox Fortuna, she claimed the young lives of the princeps Augustus' grandsons Gaius and Lucius, prospective heirs to the Empire. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fortuna Perhaps a 250 gram silver bar - PAMP - Lady Fortuna with some kind of engraved love message and a nice stand for the bar. http://www.perthbullion.com/shop/detail/pmplfsbg250/ Source: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDrQ3uPjxwU[/youtube] [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFy5hfLuTCk[/youtube]
A stainless steel vegetable grater , its silver color. It got me out of my marriage and she threw it at me when I was leaving, picked it up and took it with me, still working great !
