    Hi @lordmarcovan,

    Thank you for another great giveaway. Since I collect Egyptian coins I would like to win the 1937 silver 2-piastres (2-qirsh) of King Farouk (PCGS AU58).

    I’m in and after that 1859 Seated Liberty Quarter. I’ve always had a soft spot for that series

    I was originally going to try for the Judaea Bronze again, but then I saw you added that Uncirculated steel cent, Krugerrand and 1859 Seated Quarter.

    It was a hard decision, but since I've never owned one, I would like to try for the Seated Quarter. Thanks for the Giveaway!

    This opportunity feels unreal - thank you so much for doing this!

    It took a while to decide as all of the coins are so beautiful in their own ways. But, as I am starting my journey into ancient coins, I find myself really gravitating toward Roman and Constantine/Byzantine coins. And, no matter how many times I've looked through the options, I just can't take my eye off of the Licinius II Roman coin. It's just so crisp and amazing. I ended up spending almost an hour reading up all about Licinius and his father and their relations.

    Here is a Limerick:

    There once was a forum called Coin Talk,
    With a lord who offered a coin from his stock.
    My desire is Licinius
    Because it looks divinius
    And if I win it I'd be in shock!

    Thank you so much for the opportunity!

    Well, now, with that much effort expended (limerick and photo!), let’s make this post an extra entry in the drawing for you! So if the random number generator lands on your post or this one, come February 1st, you’ll win!

    (And if you don’t, there’s always another shot in the next giveaway!) :)

    Sal- that’s fine. Just remind me later, if you win. Because I’ll be adding new stuff throughout the month, anybody who wins will get an opportunity to look through all the prizes again later, and change their selection if they want to, after the drawing.

    Well this is exciting! An opportunity to enter and possibly win a neat coin or token! Thank you! For me, my choice would be anything to improve my small collection but there are two coins that I think are sweet, the 1863 civil war token Flag of our union, and the 1943 steel Lincoln. Win or not, thanks Rob!

    We needed some old Spanish silver in the mix, so I just added this one to the Giveaway Gallery. :)

    The coin is in a "Genuine/Details" PCGS holder due to an old lacquering, traces of which remain on the obverse. Lacquering is no longer in favor nowadays, but old-time collectors in the late 19th and early 20th century would sometimes coat their coins in lacquer to preserve them. Aside from that issue, I think this is a cool little piece for the price I paid.

    Spain: 1793-S CN silver half-real of Charles IV (PCGS AU details)

    Throwing my hat in again for #1, the "widow's mite." I collect ancient biblical related coinage so it would fit right in.

    I'm in for the Civil War token, despite my inclination to go for the half reale or the Gordian, as a complement to my Mars Gordian. I am a fan of the patriotism of the token and the rusted die is unique. Thank you @lordmarcovan !
