    Love that Philippines coin. Anything with an eagle, dragon or ship is a cool coin to me

    This coin looks so much better zoomed in to see the detail like this than it would be when you get it in circulation. I realize this is probably a silver proof, but it's the same design. I never really looked twice at it before.

    The Nevada quarter is what I'm talking about.

    I dunno if the Nevada state quarter design is my favorite modern coin, but it's certainly my favorite out of the 50 Statehood quarter designs, especially in DCAM proof, like the example shown.

    oh I have many other favorites just the one that stands out the most for me when it comes to design looks. Get a good new eagle coin design and I'll love that lol

    With regards to the quarters, I have always been partial to the eagle reverse on the Washington quarters. It's hard to believe next year will mark 20 years since that reverse designs last use. Hopefully once the ATB program ends after 2021 it will be reimplemented.

    OK, it is time to announce our winners.

    Using the random.org random number generator, I have drawn five numbers (excluding duplicates and posts made by myself and @Steve66).

    @Steve66 wanted people to be able to choose their prizes, so I guess we can proceed like we did with my July giveaway: first number drawn gets first pick, second gets second pick, and so on, with the fifth person getting whatever is left over.

    Here are our winners.

    @redeyelou was the first number drawn, for Post #28, and gets first choice of prizes.

    @rooman9 was the second number drawn, for Post #37, and gets second choice of prizes after @redeyelou has chosen.

    @Seba79 was the third number drawn, for Post #21, and gets third choice of prizes after @rooman9 has chosen.

    @Paddy54 was the fourth number drawn, for Post #14, and gets fourth choice of prizes after @Seba79 has chosen

    @Dougmeister was the fifth number drawn, for Post #10, and gets whatever's left after @Paddy54 has chosen.

    So, first pick goes to you, @redeyelou - what'll it be? :)

    If you choose one of the prizes I put up, I'll need your address.
