My Mood:  | 3,000 post contest, Round 1
I have no idea what the prize will be, but you'll have to wait until the MSNS show which is at the end of November. It'll be something good, I can promis that.
Ok, now...for the contest; PM ME THE ANSWERS...IF YOU POST HERE WITH THE ANSWERS THE CONTEST IS OVER! Round one ends this Saturday. The top three scores go to round two. In an event of a tie for scores, the contestants will be PM'd one question, over and over until one is incorrect and one wins.
Answer these ten questions. Like said above, you don't have to get them all correct, it is the top three. Each question is worth ten points, be as thorough as possible when possible.
1. My face is a lion and I hail from Greece. I am among the first silver coins made.
2. I am a Native, My Planchet is incused on both sides and my color is yellow. Some call me the hardest to grade and hard to authenticate amongst all US coins.
3. Unscramble the letters: TOVNAICA
4. Unscramble the letters: HULIHLCRC
5. Unscramble the letters: EPIAN
6. TRUE or FALSE: Because America was founded under a Christain Nation, our money is required to have "In God We Trust" imprinted on our currency. Explain your answer.
7. Real or fake: 
8. Real or Fake: 
9. Give me all the info you can on this: 
10. Who runs the Ancient part for NGC?
ready, setty, go.
