    4/11/21: This contest is now CLOSED. Winners were announced in Post #53 (Prize A) and #57 (Prize B).

    @CoinJockey73 has been kind enough to offer to sponsor another contest for us.

    Here are the prizes.

    Prize A is this lovely 1923 Peace dollar. He would like this coin to go to a young (or young-at-heart) collector who has never owned a Peace dollar before, so that's what we'll do.

    Prize B consists of five Bicentennnial Ike dollars plus 1972 and 1973 Kennedy halves. This prize is open to everyone.

    Sometime shortly after April 9th we will do the drawings, using a random number generator, per usual forum practice. @CoinJockey73 will then ship the prizes.

    To enter this contest:

    1. Please type the phrase "entry post" into your first (and only your first) response to this thread. You may post as many conversational posts as you like, but only one entry post per member. Your one entry post enters you into both drawings, but your name will only be considered eligible for Prize A if you have never before owned a Peace dollar.

    2. Please tell us whether or not you have owned a Peace dollar before. Be honest. If you have, you'll be entered for Prize B, but as mentioned, our sponsor wants Prize A (the Peace dollar) to go to someone who has never before owned one.

    3. If you have owned a Peace dollar before, you may still enter the drawing for Prize A on someone else's behalf (as long as they are eligible by right of never having owned a Peace dollar). Tell us who you would like to win Prize A for.

    4. Be sure to thank @CoinJockey73 for his generosity.

    You, @Randy Abercrombie, @lordmarcovan, i can't thank everyone enough, for being so cool with me, so welcoming.
    I have very little knowledge to contribute, but I've had good fortune here, recently, (Thank you @Randy Abercrombie , for your generosity), and at the bank. Without CT, none of this would have happened. I think the positivity is contagious, so i want to keep it alive!
    Good luck to you, sir, and thanks for having a little fun with me, every day.

    Little shameless plug, i run a little thread of my daily finds, @potty dollar 1878, @Bradley Trotter, @kkm, i see you guys peeking in, and just want to say thank you for stopping by and checking things out.

    For anyone else that might think a "daily finds" thread is cool. I warn you, I'm boring! Silver, or prewar, and really only what i find in circulation. But i usually find something 5 days a week.

    That's a tough one... I am tied between the original Jefferson nickel design (incl. war nickels) and the Barber coinage. I also love the Mercury dime and the Capped Bust coinage. I don't know if I can choose a favorite!

    What a wonderful philanthropic gesture @CoinJockey73
    May good karma envelope you tenfold.

    I'd like to put a twist on my entry. If my name is to be drawn I'd like whichever prize is offered to go to @Evan Saltis . However, I'd like Evan to select another YN to receive the other prize if Evan is the first one to win. Obviously if he's the second winner this contingency doesn't play out.

    Thanks again @CoinJockey73

    Welcome aboard, thank you for the well wishing. As long as everyone is on the same page, and agrees to the update, I'm fine with it. @lordmarcovan? Sit well with the official referee?
    Good luck @masterswimmer.
