    Greetings CT friends. I have a ton of stuff I don't need so I'll be giving it all away, and all you have to do is demonstrate genuine interest in the item at hand.

    You'll do this by linking us to a previous instance when you expressed your interest in the type of coin I'm posting, or something reasonably tangential. I'll try to be specific with each item.

    This is my first attempt at a contest so feel free to tell me if I'm doing something wrong. I did read the rules, twice. Enjoy and good luck!

    First up: this sweet Barber Dime. All you have to do is link us to where you mentioned a Barber Dime before now.

    Next up. PCGS DCAM Louisiana quarter. Were you saying something about Louisiana? Or New Orleans?
    Or jazz music, even? Link us and it's yours, with free shipping to CONUS states.

    One more for now, because all good things come in threes. Whoever supplies their link first wins it. Did you say anything about Pennsylvania? Or keystones? Or steel? Or Pirates?

    Also PCGS certified, as shown.

    Nice twist! I like it a lot.

    Now, let me see if I can dredge up those posts where I was talking wistfully about Stellas... :D

    Good morning @Marsden, nice idea for a contest!
    I'd like to enter @AidenAlexander for the Barber dime, please. He mentioned his love of them on my thread, just the other day, and as an active YN, i think he'd really enjoy that dime. Thanks so much.

    (He's even got a Barber as his avatar!)

    I have a YN in mind I'd pass this along too. He's a little young to be on this forum, but he is a Boy scout in my son's troop, and he is working on his coin collecting merit badge. I am the merit badge councilor for coin collecting, and I recognize the excitement and passion I had at that age.

    Very thoughtful of you @Marsden. I would entertain a similar process to lighten my collection. However, with 14 grandkids and 21 great grandkids I have been practicing for several years in hopes that they will become interested. I will watch your effort and see how it goes.

    It's really hard to remember what we mentioned, and when. Is there an easy way to search all of your own posts?

    What's the rule for entering other people? I'm inclined to favor those who post for themselves only. Seems like this issue has come up already.

    It occurred to me last night after signing off that anyone could just use the search feature and find someone who had mentioned x or y and then PM them telling them there's a free coin here.

    Not say that happened, and I think tagging someone is fair game, but it may be a fly in the ointment. Of course one cure is to post less desirable coins ;)

    OTOH we could have tag team wrestling..

    But seriously, I think Dano wins the dime.

    Does that make sense to most of you?

    Dano please PM your shipping address TY
