As a way of saying thanks to the forum, I am giving away a 2008-P Brilliant Uncirculated (MS63-64) Arizona state quarter with the so-called "extra cactus" covering BOTH the designer's initials AND the date. The date covering is very easily seen with the naked eye. I will also cover the shipping. If you are wondering what these look like, I will post a picture sometime tonight of the exact coin I am giving away, but you can search ebay for the extra cactus arizona quarter and see what all the hoopla is about. There was also an article in Coin World on June 30 about these (so I hear). These are currently selling for around $20-$25. Who knows, in a month they could be selling for 25 cents or $100 (or at any price). The jury is still out on how rare these are. Giveaway rules: simply respond to this thread stating you would like to participate. The winner will be chosen by random on Friday, July 28, 2008 at 5:00 PM Central, by my 21-month old daughter (no kidding). Okay...here are some pics of the coin. There are not the best of quality as far as pics, but the best I could do without a good macro lens.
I have the 2008S United States Mint 50 State Quarters Silver Proof Set. So this would be nice additon to my collection. This would also be nice to add the error 2008-P Brilliant Uncirculated Arizona State quarter to the collection. Thank you , count me in. Cheryl
