    Has anyone added up the requests so far? Roughly I'd guess it's well under $20 million so we're not even making a dent in the assured winnings.

    Let us know when to start shopping.
    I currently don't know of any listing for a certain coin.

    Looks like I didn't invest well :p only got 3 numbers.
    That would be great if they were all on the same ticket :D but nope.
    Maybe next drawing, I didn't hear if someone hit all 6 numbers.

    Don't feel bad. Out of five tickets I only got one number.

    After the winner pays taxes on the jackpot, $20 Million will be valued at a whole lot more than just a dent.

    Depends on how you view a "dent." In my state if I took the cash option, I'd net $345,196,980. I'd still have plenty left for my 10 mansions and super yacht - you know, the stuff that would make me a happier person. :)

    Also it's good to live in a state without a state income tax. Poor California.:D

    I see from @Histman 's profile he is in California, and there were five winners that matched the 5 white ball numbers, for $1,000,000 each, and one was from California. We haven't heard from him since before the drawing - you don't think...

    Which one would you like him to get for you. There is one with the name, "Gobrecht F." below the base, but would be kind of greedy.

    And there there are all of those die rotations, and one dated 1838.

    A great truth! And with that said, I think the first ever (successfully) minted Morgan sounds nice.

    I don't know varieties but Coast to Coast coins has an 1836 PR-55 for a measly $21,950. That one will do. James

    I've been out of town on business, but I'm sad to say that I did not win. :(

    You let us down, dude.....

    LOL, one day I will get that $3 gold piece, it's just if I can find one at a good price. If you know me, you know I'd never really play that card above - unless I have the chance to exploit it for the jokes.

    Hopefully next time you'll win some money. Good things will happen when you least expect them to, or in my case, when you didn't bring enough cash to the shop.

    I wish I could buy one of those tickets. I've still got 5 years to go before that though, but $1.7 billion would REALLY help the coin business.
