    Well, let's see here's a good one. I purchased a second edition 1949 Red Book by the great R.S. Yeoman in pretty much pristine condition for 25 cents at a library book sale way back in 1988 I believe. Still have it. Love you all - stay safe and have as much fun as you can during these trying times.

    Entry Post
    12543 (but I would be pleased with any of them). Thanks yo the three donors for your kindness.

    Since my coin photos have been poor, I will just add a comment. I can still remember asking my grandmother if she had any old coins that I could look at. She disappeared and came back with a handkerchief that had an assortment of Indian heads, V nickles, a nickle 3¢ piece and 1864 2¢ piece. She gave me the 2 & 3 cent pieces saying that she could still spend the others and wanted to keep them. Sadly, after she passed away, I have no clue who got the few coins she had. Those two will always hold a special place in my collection.

    The first lucky number drawn was #7.

    Post #7 was by @goossen.

    @goossen - you have won Prize #1, which is the "pick your prize" option. So pick your prize and shoot me a private message to let me know what item you chose, and your shipping address.

    (Oh, also- I have a bunch of new stuff that I have not yet been able to add to the Pick Bin, so let me know your general likes, too. I may have something else that's not shown that you might like more.)

    Prize #1, from @lordmarcovan

    One item of the winner's choice from my "Pick Bin" (up to $25 value).

    The next lucky number drawn was #82.

    Post #82 was by @Mike Davis.

    @Mike Davis, you win Prize #2, from me. Shoot me your shipping address in a private message and I'll get those off to you.

    Prize #2, from @lordmarcovan

    Two World Silver coins.

    • Australia: silver shilling of George V, KM# 26, 1916-M, G+ to VG, Melbourne mint.
    • France: silver franc, 1918, "Semeuse" or "Sower" type, KM# 844.1, XF+ to AU.
    I would guesstimate the Aussie shilling as a $6-8-ish item, perhaps, and the French Sower franc at $19-20-ish (in USD).

    (Enjoy my nice glarey cellphone shots.)

    @goossen- Prize #1 shipped.

    @Mike Davis - Prize #2 shipped.

    Still waiting to hear from @atariguy on Prize #3. He has a month from the date of the drawing to claim it.

    Hey, @paddyman98 ... guess what? It's your lucky day! Since the winner of that bank did not claim his prize and more than a month has elapsed, it is yours! I was gonna redraw another number, but heck, since you're the one who actually expressed an interest in it, there you go. Shoot me your address in a PM.
