    I have now added all the new additions (previously mentioned) to the Giveaway Gallery page, just in time for the end of the month.

    So there will now be 31 prizes to choose from when I do the drawing in a couple of days. :)

    That “washer” is a WW2 zinc coin from German-occupied Belgium.

    We’ll have the drawing in less than 24 hours, sometime in the wee hours of Monday morning, unless something at work intrudes into my downtime.

    Welcome to July, everyone. It is time for the drawing!

    Our lucky number was... 8.

    Post #8 was by... @PlanoSteve !
    Coingratulations, Steve! The Judaean bronze is yours... unless you opt for a different prize. Note that I added several new options to the Giveaway Gallery during the month, so have another look and let me know. If it's still the Judaean bronze you want, then that's yours! I shall message you shortly. :)

    Please be sure to post to this thread later, when you have received the coin.

    Oh, also- please note that we're having problems in Georgia with delays on outgoing mail. One of our senators is taking the Postmaster General to task over that. It took @masterswimmer 3-1/2 weeks to receive his prize from Giveaway #111. But he did eventually get it. And I'm confident you'll get yours. It just might take a while, unless they've fixed some of our USPS problems.

    Congrats @PlanoSteve
    Kudos Rob. It's like deja vu, all over again.

    I'm confirming the 3-1/2 weeks to receive Rob's Giveaway #111. I absolutely gave up on it being delivered. Sheepishly I admit, I did resolve myself to the thought that there were nefarious acts perpetrated on that unsuspecting package. Gleefully I was mistaken :)

    @PlanoSteve - your coin has finally shipped today, July 6th. I hope the USPS doesn’t take too long in getting it there (that’s been an issue with outgoing Georgia mail, as I’ve mentioned). Let us know when it arrives! :)

    @lordmarcovan,

    Rob, received it in today's (7/18) mail, thank you very much! More awesome than I expected! :singing:

    Interestingly, the USPS hand cancelled the 4 stamps on the envelope, but they didn't use an official stamp - they merely ran a black magic marker line through the stamps!!! Never seen that before - I guess they really are on an austerity budget! :D

    Steve

    I’ve seen the black marker cancellation before. Not sure why they do it that way sometimes. Sometimes they don’t cancel the stamps at all.
