    The "We want to win a local contest" contest. GOLD COIN!!!

    Hi Gang!

    I got a packet in the mail this morning from one of our local television stations. Apparently my coin shop has been nominated as one of the best local businesses in Indianapolis. Each year a local television station runs a contest to find the best local businesses. The nominated businesses are then put into their respective categories and the public gets to vote. This is the first time we have been nominated for anything like this and I'd like to win.

    So the contest is simple. Vote for us and your entered. Just post here when you've voted, this is gonna be an honesty thing because I'm not sure if I can see who voted or not. Random drawing from the entries in a couple of weeks!

    The website is http://www.theindychannel.com/alist Takes about 2 minutes to sign up and then we are listed under the SHOPPING section under ANTIQUES as Lost Dutchman Rare Coins. I have been told that this website is only accepting votes from US voters so unfortunately our non US friends might not be able to vote. (I'll run an international contest at a later date for you guys I promise)

    I really apprecieate it. Gang! Thanks!

    THE PRIZE!

    1860 S $2.5 Gold Piece. WOOHOO I know right??
