[CLOSED] Penny Luster Giveaway #1 (Twelve Days of COINmas)

Had to laff at the line in the song about buying a Reliant K-car (hoo boy, there’s a ‘90s reference!). My ex-wife had one in ‘94. Definitely not the kinda car you’d wanna buy if you had a million dollars!

Silly song. I liked it. Had never heard it before.

 

Awww.

Wait, stop, y'all. Put away those cans of tuna and that catnip. Miss Peaches cannot be bribed to rig the prize drawings.

That would be me. I take payment in Philly Cheesesteak sammiches, if anybody is listening. With lots of grilled onions, please. And bell pepper.

Oh- speaking of drawings- I guess it's time for another one, isn't it? Those nine Merc dimes need a new home, I reckon.

Stand by...

 

You're very eloquent, @masterswimmer, but perhaps you should slim down your posts somewhat. Nobody has time to read all that!

 

The random number generator has spoken again, giving us the winning number for Lot #9.

And the number it bestowed its blessing upon was #388.



... and Post #388 was by @dano!

Congrats, @dano! You just added nine more Merc dimes to your silver stash! Be sure to provide Claire (@Penny Luster) with your shipping address. I'll send out a private message shortly.

 

Ready for Day 10?

Of course you are.

Let me upload the prize picture and all that good stuff, and we'll get going with the next one.

 

Lo, the tenth day is upon us now.

Lot #10.

On the tenth day of COINmas, @Penny Luster gave to thee...

Ten little Indians!

Indian cents, that is:

1882
1884
1897
1898
1900
1902
1905
1906 (x2)
1907​

Want 'em?

All you have to do to enter is say "I want those!", and then post something else amusing and cheerful, per Claire's directions:

After one day has elapsed, we will then have another drawing, and give these coins away, and then we'll move on to the eleventh day of Coinmas, which will be a drawing for eleven coins!

 

This lot (Day 10) will be the last one that Claire will be shipping herself. The remaining two lots (#11 & #12) will be coming from my inventory, and will be shipped by me. (Claire swapped me some stuff for those lots, however, so they're still entirely her donation to the contest- just as everything else here has been.)

Spoiler alert: I'm more of a World coin guy myself than a US coin guy, though I do both, so...

One other note: I have to have a surgical procedure* tomorrow morning (Monday, 12/14), so the drawing for this Lot #10 might be a little bit later than 24 hours in.

(*No need for sympathy posts- it's just a minor outpatient thing.)

But hopefully not too out of synch. I will be off tomorrow night, so maybe- hopefully- I'll be upright again in the evening or late night, or the wee hours of Tuesday morning.

I quite like that. Very easy on the ears, in my opinion. I'm a big fan of World music, so I listen to a lot of cross-cultural stuff.

Here is a mellow Classic Rock song with a Native American inspiration.
