    I want coin (C) if I win. I have a handful of walkers but nothing MS or even AU.
    Thanks for the contest!

    Gilt brass or bronze, I believe. Not tombac.

    I want in! (B). My ancestry goes back to Germany, so any coin from there would be a great gift!

    Please Let Me In

    Should mana from heaven deluge my request, I would request Coin B. I have some Germanic family roots, and am easily tempted by coins and such that are affiliated with the notional homeland.

    Edit: Is that a Vienna sausage can near the Crew? Does that explain the lip licking? Clever to have opened the can so cleanly.
    And Thanks to LordMarcovan for creating this contest.

    It is indeed an (already empty) Vienna sausage can which was purloined from the recycling bin by the guilty, lip-licking party.

    Those old sheets on the furniture got pretty filthy and have since been discarded.

    Ladymarcovan found some fleece fabric remnants that were so cheap they were practically a giveaway. So that's become the latest sacrificial couch covering. The cats LOVE it. Here they are just now, on a cold night.

    Note that Huckleberry occupies the same spot in both photos.

    I want in. Any of the coins would be awesome, but I’d have to say I like the German coin (B). Thanks for the contest @lordmarcovan.

    ^ also those cats look like they have found their happy place.

    I want option A! I'm trying to get a set of the five good emperors. I have Antoninus and that's it. I get a little sidetracked when I try to build a set, but that Trajan would get me closer.

    This coin was originally incorrectly attributed when I bought it, so I've fixed it.
    Antoninus Pius Denarius (138-161) 18mm
    COS IIII (145-161), Rome. bust right Rs.Liberalitas l. with Abacus and cornucopia.

    I want that Walker! My collection only has six of the design, all proof. Perhaps this coin will get me started on a short set of Walkers, an idea I like but keep delaying for other purchases.

    Here’s my 1937 proof that I nabbed at the recent FUN show:

    BlackberryPie I like pie

    C. I’d like C because I think the eagle reverse is by far the most beautiful eagle design of any modern US coin.

    Entry Post. I'd love A, the trajan. I have no ancients currently, but a great desire to learn about their history, get into it, learn greek or arabic. This would help push me down that rabbit hole. Thanks all!
