    Please throw my name in the hat... I love the idea of being able to start an ancients collection along with the US and World coins. :)

    Yes, that has happened for the most part to me too. But I noticed that once my eyes/brain became more 'sensitive' I began to notice more instances of doubling and other interesting effects that led to more research, reading and learning. (I am still a newbie!)

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

    Ok. So I would be there too. Wonder how many of us could stand shoulder to shoulder peering down in the hole we just dug when our metal detector went "Beeeeeppp"?

    Oops. I forgot to tell you what interested me the most. First. I love searching rolls so that would be my first pic and I haven't been able to search in a long time. I also don't have very many ancient coins so that would be my second. Third I love anything with an S mint mark and wheat pennies ;).

  15. Rigid is very generous of you and great appreciated. Please enter me in your contest. I have always had an interest in older American coins such as the wheaties and the Indian. My dad was a bit of a collector and sparked my interest in it and I've recently revived that interest and started putting together some albums. The s mint coins are of interest to me as I rarely ever find them. Thanks again

    @Kentucky - How did you know that I was here doing that "Laaaady" of Jerry Lewis when I heard he had died? I glad you posted this. I loved Jerry Lewis very much.

    Just limping onto the boards tonight to say i am excited about drawing the name of the winner in the morning. I say “limping in” because my normal high speed internet service provider is not working for some strange reason. Perhaps I will have the problem resolved easily and soon; but, the first thing I thought about when I discovered my connectivity issue tonight was....THE CT DRAWING!!! Oh No!!!

    So, just in case tomorrow morning comes and I can not even get this little hub thingy up and running, and you do not see a winner posted yet, just be sure that I am out there working on it and will have the winner posted as close to 9am (maybe earlier) as possible.
    Sure, why not? I don’t have enough stress in my life?!?!

    Good morning happy people!

    I just finished reaching into the hat with all names in it....and the winner is:

    @SchwaVB57 !!

    Congratulations!

    Also. Here is a photograph of what is in the package you'll receive: The only thing that is not included here is a photograph of the ancient. I've just decided it will be one of the lovely coins I got through @John Anthony!! I won't describe it here since it is 9AM and I want to post the winner on time! Yaaaayy!

    Edited to add description of ancient coin: Constantine II as Caesar with a Vot X reverse. AE Follis 18mm, AD 325-324 - A Full attribution by John Anthony will arrive with the coin.

    Please private message me with your address and I will get this package off to you this week when I go to the post office.

    Wow! Thank you LaCointessa for the contest! I think it is the first time I have ever won a drawing. Your generosity is greatly appreciated!
    The ancient and foreign coins will be the first I have ever had in my possession. The PM is on the way. Again, thank you!
