Talking Lets have another Contest! Lets call it the Barr Dollar Contest??

Hello Everyone.....

I really enjoyed the Paper Money Contest we had. The information search was really educational.

I would like to have another one called the Barr Dollar Contest where as the pic posted here will be first prize. I will say that there will be two winners of this contest and 2nd place prize has not been determined yet. Since this note does not fit into my New York collection, what better way to have some fun huh?

I will post a new Thread called the "Barr Dollar Contest" pretty soon so keep an open eye for it!

There will be just 1 element (corrected 2 elements) to this one and I hope challenge you somewhat as well.

The 1st Prize will be a CHCU J.W. Barr dollar my choice of FRB.....

Stay tuned!!


RickieB

So hey..it looks like it is a go then....

I wll post the contest on Friday March 7th, 2008.
As with the last contest I will state a time frame that you must PM to register for the contest.
No need to do this until I make the post so please stand by.

There will be a 1st and second prize prize as listed, 1 bonus prize for the bonus questions and even a third prize for the let's dig really deep question!

I am considering sweeting the 1st prize somewhat and that will remain to be posted on March 7th.

Also, there will be 2 Elements, not one! So stay tuned for that change.

So until March 7th...see you then!!
