Just a little nudge here, to bump this presently still-active contest above some of the closed ones.
I will ship worldwide, by the way. These coins have already traveled from ancient Greece to Australia to the Golden Isles of Georgia, and they...
LordM Giveaway #70 (Happy Ayyám-i-Há!) This contest is now CLOSED. Winner announced in Post #59. This is a special "just because I felt like...
I just realized that every one of the coins I posted above are “bygones” except for the Conder token. Oh well. Most of the interesting toners in...
Coins now received from the Land Down Under, and thus I am happy to announce that this contest is now open! :)
I am the one who included those weasel words "or similar", because I have very little confidence in my attribution ability, and when I see an...
Thanks. I've spent the first two months of this year in bed, hollowed out by crippling depression and only able to get up to go to work. I count...

BTW, @NLL, here are some pix of your coin which I took to share with @masterswimmer, back when we were discussing what to send you to put under...

Yep, tumbled/polished, somehow. Still a fun find, if you got it from circulation.
I'm back from hiatus, so let's do the random (and sorry, much-belated) drawing. With so hilariously few entries, this should be easy. The random...
Bump, to push this back above the closed contests.
Those photorealistic emperor mockups are almost creepy. In a cool way. You know Nero would be a hipsterish gamer type. Just look at that face....
I didn't do a 2021 "year in review" thread, but maybe I'll be able to do a "first coin of 2022" thread. When that happens. :P
