My favorite thing about my Gold Foil Legendary collection is there is an interesting story behind how I acquired each one of these:

After all, the back stories and lore are some of the most interesting parts of @steemmonsters and each of the stories makes these cards even that much more ... legendary.

Like the real 24k Mene gold I traded for the frost giant:

Or the spare change I turned into coinstar when I found my first Alpha Gold Lightning Dragon:

Yesterday, I added to the legend when I made a mutually beneficial trade with @darkmrmystic for this guy:

The magic of this late night trade was to me about more than just the mechanics and value exchanged.

I think the most interesting part of the trade is that two people who have never met in person can make a high dollar transaction and have a high level of trust.

This speaks favorably to this gaming community created by @yabapmatt and @aggroed and all of our mutual willingness to invest ourselves in a long term horizon instead of just cashing out and ripping someone off for a short term gain.

The cool thing is, I have met @darkmrmystic before on the steem blockchain.

An early adopter of Mene, Mr Mystic has entered a number of my contests and I already knew I could trust him from our previous interactions. Evidently he felt the same and our transaction went off without a hitch.

How many other communities would be able to pull something like this off?

All I know is how grateful I am to be part of the @steemmonsters and #menemaniac community, as we continue to build collective trust and value for ourselves and each other:)

See ya all in the arena and now if you see me using my gold hydra.... you know the true legend behind him!

Wow, I painted that a long time ago, in a state over 1600 miles away from me.
I'm glad we got to make that trade Bud, and I also love the fact that we can have that mutually beneficial trust between people that may not know each other in person.

This land is amazing for what it offers, now we just need to get the rest of the world onboard.

Again, Thank you @goldmatters !!!
