So now we come to... ROUND 3. The prize for this round is a... United States: silver Barber half dollar, 1899-O [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]...
Here's the drawing for Round 2. The winning number was 71. [ATTACH] Post #71 was by... @ArbySea! Well, you've got it now! Congratulations,...
I’m going to postpone the drawing until a little bit later (Sunday afternoon, perhaps). Feel free to enter in the meantime, if you haven’t already.
I would like to state in advance that I will likely not be online when we reach the 24-hour anniversary of Round 2, so that drawing will likely...
Surprised you haven’t dug any, or is that how you got the one you have? I found five silver halves in my years of detecting. As I recall, they...

I was wondering if I should make that limitation, but decided no, it’s fine for anyone to enter all the rounds, and if they get lucky in the...
And as always, your eye proved keen indeed.
I'm feeling a tad lazy to GTG right now, but I will say that I like the Denver coin.
@Paddy54 is a kind and generous soul.
Good on you, @expat.
You're right about that! :)
If I saw an o/c example of one of the 1965 Peruvian Lima Mint commems, I'd buy it. That's my birthyear, and I like the design.
It's whiter looking in hand- more like you see in my crude slab shots versus the TrueView images the others were based on. Turns out they did...
Round 1 is closed and Round 2 has begun. If you'd like to join, it's really very easy. All you have to do is say you want the coin, and why you...
