Thanks to everybody for guessing away.... I saw the post early on that had the 1857 Flying Eagle Cent, and I was hoping no one would guess it so early on.... Anyway, Spider and I are both winners here: I got my Eagle Cent, and Spider is going to get a prize, which I am going to reveal soon...! Congrats again, Spider, and thanks to all who gave it a good guess! ~AJ
Wow, what are the odds (both finding the cent and then having somebody else guess what it was you found)? Excellent!
Lol, yeah, I wanted to try to make it at least a little trickier to win this contest than simply a random drawing.... no offense to random drawers, I won #49 off a random drawing! I thought it might be more fun this way, and I hope it will prompt creativity in these contests!
Collecting Canadian decimal business strikes to me is the equivalent of a Cocaine addict looking for his next fix. Every time I find a new coin I need for my collection, it renders me "high" for the rest of the day!
