    No wonder there is a shortage of small change in the US now!

    Welcome. Here's a free second entry for you. When the drawing comes around, if the random number generator hits this post (#123), you'll win, same as if it hits your entry post (#122).

    The random number generator hath spoken, and yea verily, the number it hath chosen is the Number ... 79.

    And Post #79 was by... @coin_nut. Who happens to be one of my favorite members, but this time he wins from sheer random chance rather than out of any favoritism.

    Congratulations, Ed. Pick your prize. :)

    Since I know I'll be shipping to Thailand, perhaps it would be best if you chose a raw rather than slabbed coin, and one that isn't too huge or heavy, so that I can mail it as a "letter" rather than a package, thereby (hopefully) negating the need for a customs form and fifty-mile round trip to the post office.

    But pick what you like, and we'll work it out. (I know you're not really into slabs anyway.) BTW, most of the pieces which are presently marked "hold" are also available, but would take longer, since they are new purchases not yet in hand.

    PS- oh, though it was not yet listed in my offerings, this quirky Far Eastern exonumia item would also be an eligible prize pick if you so chose. I figure it might be more up your alley than that of some other folks. But pick what you like.

    OK, how about that 1934 Estonia kroon? Jeez, I wasn't expecting to win anything. What a surprise!

    Do note the edit to my last post over that Japanese soroban medal.

    But if you want the 1934 Estonia kroon, that is what it shall be, then. Note that as mentioned, that one will take a little bit longer, since it is a fresh purchase not yet arrived here to me.

    Good choice. I've had this thing in my VCoins watchlist from Coin Kingdom LLC for a while but held off on ordering it until I found a few others to order from them to make the shipping charge worthwhile.

    (Other pix will be archived here.)

    Thanks for the contest, Rob! I assume your surgery went okay since you're still posting.

    Congratulations @coin_nut !

    Not bad- I haven't even needed any ibuprofen or painkillers. I'm told I have to wait 24 hours before I can take the bandages off and have a shower, though, so I am eager for that. Doesn't take long to get all sweaty and sticky in humid SE Georgia in September!

    Thanks. It was only relatively minor (outpatient) vein surgery in my right leg. The left leg got it last month. This is the second round on each leg, but hopefully it will be sufficient.
