<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jaceravone, post: 404780, member: 9474&quot;]Well, Darkfenix became our second winner tonight. He will receive the second place award which is the Q. David Bowers book on the state quarters. Congrats.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So here are the answers and what I was looking for. Apparently, the first question wasn&#039;t really a challenge, but the other two stumped some people. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>1. What does my signature say? It is in Latin and says, &quot;If you can read this then you are overeducated!&quot; This quote is engraved on a plaque that we got my father in law for a Xmas gift, but we decided to keep it and it can be found hanging above our kitchen phone.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>2. What is the coin in my sig and what is its significance. The poised a huge challenge to all. The coin is an 2007 American Eagle Platinum proof 1/2 ounce. It has a monetary value of $50. The sets that it can be found in, in addition to the 4 coin platinum proof set, is the 10th anniversary APE set that had the reverse proof of that series. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>3. Lastly, what is the name of the bridge that is depicted on the reverse of the WV state quarter and what is its significance? The bridge is the New River Gorge Bridge. An absolutely beautiful site to behold. So very serious class 4 and 5 rapids run under this bridge. I have gone on may rafting and fishing trips down this river. What made this bridge so special is that up until 2003, it was considered the longest arch bridge in the world. There were big signs at each end of the bridge notifying motorists of this title. But in 2003, the Chinese open the Shanghai Lu Pu bridge which took that honor. The signs have been changed to now say, the longest arch bridge in the western hemisphere. If you ever get a chance to visit that area of WV, you must take a look. It is quite breath taking. Thanks for everyone who did and didn&#039;t participate. Hope you all learned something today.
