Next drawing... who wants an 1853-O quarter? :) Like I said, don’t get too excited- it’s a lowball- slick n’ spooky- but it IS an Arrows & Rays...
The first random number drawn was #57. [ATTACH] Post #57 was by @dano, and as it happens, I had already preapproved his story as a finalist....
OK, sorry, I got sidetracked here, and drawn away on one of my periodic forum absences. I really wanted to give all these stories the detailed...
Well, there are hundreds upon hundreds of billions of Lincoln cents out there, so, by the law of averages... This is one reason most of these...
The random number generator pulled two eligible winners on the very first try this time. There were no dud draws where I or the sponsor came up....
The random number generator has pulled #128 for the first lucky number. And Post #128 was by... @BronzeAge! Congratulations, @BronzeAge! It...

Let's all have a round of applause for our kind donor, @CoinJockey73. Winners- you each have one month from today (until May 11th) to claim your...
OK, there we go, finally. Our next lucky number was, as it happens, only one digit off from the first one. The lucky number this time was #40....
Wow. @CoinJockey73 - you just won your own Prize B three times... the random number generator pulled #35 three times in a row! (You.) Then #2...

That was the time to buy 'em, fer sure!
OK... ready? Let's do some drawings, shall we? ;) First, the Peace dollar...
