Yes, I know that. Firsthand. I found one. :) And that scenario in the last sentence is almost certainly what happened. It came over on the...

I looked on eBay, for off-centers, double-strikes, and clipped planchets, but honestly, most of what I saw priced within our $50 budget was either...
I have followed your suggestion and purchased one. At $41.47 after shipping, I knowingly overpaid a bit for this piece. That is more than XF...
I just purchased a coin on eBay which meets the above criteria, though it likely wouldn't fill an empty hole in @mrbadexample's Numista map. But...
Huh? Round 4 was just posted, Sal! o_O The drawing won't happen for another couple of days! You've got plenty of time to enter, like I said.
You might have missed the drawing for Round 3, but you’re here just in time to enter for Round 4! :D
Thoughtful of you, @Abramthegreat ! He won one for you- wouldn't it be hilarious if you ended up winning one for him, in return? Hey, it could...

ROMANORUM. Slight typo, there. It happens to me all the time. Cool. You know, I found one of these, once... right here in Georgia!...
It's pretty groovy for a $1 coin, I'd say.
These are fun. I need to stock up on some more for my giveaway "free store". They're so chunky and impressive- and affordable. And the edge...
Thanks for the tip, though. Maybe I should keep my eyes open, after all. Y'know, I never did go looking for W-mint quarters, either.
I long ago lost track of the modern quarters. Calling myself a numismatist, I really should know more about them, but since I do not actively...
Those are supposed to be coins? "Heavily chopmarked"? Well, I'll say! They look more moth-eaten, with those giant, ragged holes in them. :rolleyes:
Stand by. It is 11:59 PM as I type this, and I said we'd do the drawing "after midnight", so the time draweth nigh. My computer is installing...
