    LordM Giveaway #115 (pick your prize)

    Contest status: CLOSED
    Drawing: (@Treashunt won)
    Shipping status: pending
    Winner's receipt: pending

    ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

    Hello, everyone, and welcome to the latest giveaway. This will be another one of my "pick your prize" contests, so you can hopefully win something you'll like.

    To enter:

    Select a prize of your choice from my Giveaway Gallery, and post an entry post stating your prize preference. For your entry to qualify, you must state a prize selection and say why you chose what you did. (Unless you're entering on someone else's behalf, in which case they will get to pick the prize later.) Your choice need not be final. Since I do periodically add new prizes to the Giveaway Gallery, you'll be given a chance to change your mind later if you win the drawing. I just like to hear the initial selections up front, since it gives me an idea of what folks like.

    Click the pic to go to the gallery.

    The drawing will be done via random number generator sometime on or after the date mentioned at the top of this post. The timing will depend on my schedule. You may consider the contest open for entries until such time as I have posted the final result of the drawing.

    Totally free: the contest is free of charge, open to everyone, with free worldwide shipping. The only further requirement is that if you win...

    Please post a receipt in this thread after you get the prize, so we'll know you got it (that helps me keep track).

    Good luck!

    Numismatic regards,

    ~Robertson ("Rob") Shinnick ("LordM")

    I have a few new prize options to add, but have not had time to photograph them and add them to the Giveaway Gallery list just yet. I'll try to get to that by the end of the month.

    Thanks again for your give-aways. I'd like the 2 1864 US 2 cents, because it's a special 100th anniversary of an important date.

    I would like to enter for the Mexican silver ounce, because silver is always nice! Thank you, sir. Here is a picture from my hike up Katahdin today. IMG-20240807-WA0019.jpeg

    thanks Sal! She was diagnosed with a cancerous growth and nothing could be done to help. The hard part was being in the hospital myself last weak and coming home to discover the wife put her down. She couldn’t tell me while I was in the hospital with fear my condition would worsen. The normal greeting at the front door was missing and nothing has ever hit me as hard! Thanks for caring.

    Sorry for your loss Dan. :sorry:
    It's tough. Such a pretty doggie!

    I choose this one as it seems I should change my winnings pick and I do resemble the portrait on the obverse after getting out of the hospital myself last week too.
    Thanks again for the contest LM!

    Entry Post----- I choose the 1873 Seated Quarter because I simply don't have one and it's been a long time since I have won a contest. :cool:

    That one is gone now, since @Hiddendragon chose it for his prize in Giveaway #114. I simply hadn’t removed it from the gallery yet. No worries, though- if you win the drawing, you’ll have the option to pick a different prize, and hopefully by the end of the month when we do the drawing, I will have added a few new prize options.

    PS- tell you what- since you didn’t post your reasoning behind the selection anyway (the why is a required part of the entry- see red text in the intro), why don’t you just go ahead and post a new entry, and I’ll disregard the previous one.

    I’d choose the 2 seated liberty dimes if I won. As mentioned previously, I’d share this prize with a young numismatist who is working on his coin collecting merit badge.
    Thank you as always for running these contests!

    Entry post. I will try again for the Severan ancient. If I change now after all the previous attempts, and win at this attempt, then Murphy´s Law would be proved valid.

    Should I be the random number gods chosen one, this month, I'd like the '43 Walking Liberty half.

    Very nice looking Liberty that I'm sure my grandson would love for his fledgling collection.

    Thanks for your never ending generosity, Rob.

    Good luck everyone.
