This time around, there will be two winners, along with two prizes. The first winner gets his or her choice of the prizes. The second winner captures the other prize. There’s no need to designate your preferred prize on your entry.

2. You are limited to ONE entry post. Multiple entries will all be disqualified.

3. The winner will be selected by random number generator. Contest entries will be designated a number for the drawing in the order they are posted.

British 2018 10oz Silver Coin called "Valiant". It's the only year of this design. Later years were designed differently.

Thank you SatinDollar for doing this contest!

Thank you for the contest and your kindness.

I'm proud to own this rare Medallic Art Co. silver oddity.
1963 Theodore Roosevelt
Medallic Art Co
.999 silver PROCESS SET STAGE EXAMPLE



Not only is this my favorite of the .999 silver Medallic Art Company President series medals, this 1963 Theodore Roosevelt issue is part of an 8 pc "Process Set"!

It is certainly the first one I have ever seen of any of these in silver. I have only seen another Medallic Art Co Presidential Series Kennedy 8 pc set in Bronze.
None of the other Presidents, of any of the Declaration signers, or Statehood series similar medals have been spotted by me.
But I am super happy that this happened on the President Theodore Roosevelt issue.

I have found that no doubt, I have 1 part of a "process set"
Here is a link to an 8 pc set of Kennedy items that is from the same President Series minted by Medallic Art Co but in bronze.

In the case that this disappears I am crediting these two photos below to Stack's Bowers Galleries STACKSBOWERS.COM


I have quite a few Theodore Roosevelt items now in my exonumia collection.

It may have some hairline scratches from a improper handling or those lines might be more evident because it is an unfinished product in the "process" in the making of the medal.

This appears to be what is called the 3rd or 4th Strike. I cannot tell the difference. It would be sandblasted and trimmed sometime after this stage and those scratches would disappear.

Well, even if it has light scratches, I am not all that upset because of the rarity. I might get this one slabbed.

 

Entry Post: Thank you for the contest and your generous prizes.
If chosen I would like the prizes to go to the next YN who posts on this contest, doubling their chance.
Here is my favorite 1 ounce silver bullion bar.

 

Thank you for the nomination! I've been doing some reading on the Roman Empire lately, and it wasn't until too long ago that I thought Trajan and Trajan Decius were the same person.

Here is a coin I am proud to show off- My first Ancient, an antoninianus of Gordian III. Whenever I get the question of "What's your favorite coin?" I always answer that it's this one.

 

Nice Gordian! You have a triple chance now in this contest, see post #8

 

Entry post - for @Noah Worke .......... and now you have four chances

I just love the draped bust design.

 

Thank you! Four entries has got to be some kind of record

Thanks for the contest and the cool prizes!!!
A recent pickup of mine that I absolutely love. A 50mm coin housed in an oversized NGC holder. Limited mintage of 999 coins.

 

Entry Post. Thanks for the Most Generous Contest!!
This is my very First "found"(Metal Detected) and my first ever Large Cent owned. Also, my best-looking LG. Cent found ever as well.
This coin has much better " eye appeal" in hand than my crummy Pictures show.
