Thread: My contest win!

Hello cointalk,
I have been meaning to post this for a while now, and here it is! It is a 2004 W $10 platinum eagle PF70 ultra cameo NGC. It was an essay contest.

Thank you JCB1983 for helping me with the contest!

beautiful! and congradulations!

What contest sponsored by whom?

Oh and congrats on the prize!

It was sponsored my modern coin mart, and it was a voting contest. What you had to do to enter was write a very short (1000 character) essay about what you would do if you were director of the mint. I managed to get the second highest amount of votes, so I picked this prize since it has a higher value then the other prize I could have picked. There were 3 prizes- a 2012 early release MS70 $10 gold eagle, my prize, and 2 out of the 5 silver eagles of the 2011 set graded PF70 and MS70. They have contests every once in a while.

Hey nice job wheaty. You really had some great ideas. Do you still have the link?

To the contest or the facebook page?

I think you should share your essay here and let us know what you would do in the big chair.

Holy Cow! That's cool!

I would, but I'm afraid that the link to the contest page (and my essay) does not exist anymore. Unfortunetley, I did not save it on a word document.

Where is your essay posted? I'd like to read a winning essay. Seems it would be very interesting.


Or recreate the essay in summary form.
