This is probably about as far as I would get, nowadays, off the cuff, without some headscratching. I could name some other sequences, but it gets...
This giveaway is posted on the Ancients forum, and will have a random drawing sometime shortly after December 17th, 2020. Post your entries over...
OK, folks. It's time to draw the winner! The Random.org random number generator has spoken, and the lucky number it drew was the number ... 11....
@Brent hobonickel - nice work! I like Hobo nickels, personally. Especially the work of modern masters like Saburov.
That's how it goes with pre-Civil War sites, anyway. By the late 1800s, there were a lot more coins in circulation, so a late-Victorian site will...
In my experience, that often seems to the case with old and isolated relic hunting sites. The site might yield only one coin, but when it does,...
Yes, you're a new member of the 3-Cent Club, now! Here she is again, in my hasty cellphone pictures from the other day. Let me know when you get...
Wow. To dig a 2c piece is impressive enough, but a Small Motto 1864 especially so. What kind of site was it?
Did you dig that one, Sal? I never found one while out detecting, but on two occasions I was with dig buddies who did. (An 1864 and an 1869.)...
I'm OK, but we just buried my mother-in-law the day before yesterday. She died suddenly and unexpectedly, but without much suffering, and at the...
On the other end of the spectrum, here are two modest, circulated examples I bought the other day. [IMG] [IMG]
My best 3cS so far. PCGS PR63 [IMG] And my best 3cN. PCGS PR65 CAM [IMG] And then the runners-up... [IMG] [IMG] ... but those are all...
Here is one of four circulated pieces I bought the other day. [IMG]
Wow, you had a kind Secret Saturn last year! I love it.
I know- saw that, and thought about it. But since my non-coin life has been a bit unsettled lately and I don't know when I'll be around (there...
I saw this one and said "oh, yeah!" to myself. Then I had to chuckle, because if you look at the lettering below the lion, the first four letters...
Good luck with that, if you want that proof 2c piece. I'd love to have it back myself. 'Tis long gone, alas.
Best one I've owned so far. Sadly, it's long gone, and I don't have any good pictures of it. It was a screamer. This one was holdered before...
International shipping for a single quarter shouldn't be so bad. If you win it, Cheech can send me yours and I can send you the one she gave me.
3, 5, and 8 for me, though they all have their appeal.
Separate names with a comma.
