    I will try to do the Round 4 drawing in a few hours, which means sometime in the middle of the night here on Eastern US time.

    Nyatii I like running w/scissors. Makes me feel dangerous

    I'm in for round four.
    Really like Franklin halves and the waffle coin is neat.

    Puppies are so cute!! Well, usually at least.:shame: Cute tiny little doggy monsters that test your patience are one of the blessings we get to endure as people, and we don't deserve the loyalty and love that they return to us as fully grown dogs. Got any pictures of this puppy??

    And Post #84 was by... @dano!

    COINgratulations, @dano! @Randy Abercrombie will need your shipping address. I shall message y'all shortly.

    Thank you, Randy, for the donation.

    @Randy Abercrombie - as usual, please post a notice here when the goodies have shipped.

    @dano - please post a receipt notice in this thread when you receive them, so we'll all know you got 'em.

    So now we begin the three rounds (Rounds 5, 6, & 7) brought to you by @Eric the Red.

    banner- day 5.png

    @Eric the Red gave to thee...

    A nice pair of white Brilliant Uncirculated 1943 silver coins:

    • 1943 Mercury dime, Mint State
    • 1943 Walking Liberty half, Mint State

    05c.jpg 05d.jpg


    To enter this round, all you need to do is:

    1. Say that you want this lot, and
    2. post something else coin-related or cheerful.

    Then, sometime in the next 2-4 days (depending on my schedule), we'll do the drawing and move on to the next round.

    You may of course say you want it for someone else, if you name that person.

    The hotel lobby at my workplace is looking festive for the season. We put the “Elf On The Shelf” doll in different locations every day. (Fun for the kiddies.) Tonight one of my coworkers has it watching the fireplace.

    If y'all like this BU Merc/Walker combo that @Eric the Red put up for us in this round, I can 100% guarantee that you're gonna like what he'll have up next, in Round 6! ;)

    So if you don't win this one, there's more sweet stuff to look forward to, later!

    And that's all I'll say about that for now. :)

    I'll throw out a Round 5 entry on behalf of @Mr. Numismatist, just for the heck of it. He can of course also post an entry himself, on his own behalf or for someone else.
