Basically anyone that voted specified who they thought had the best article. Many mentioned two or three names. The winning tally was 9 to 7 to 7 and then 4's all the way down to 1. Just about every single person was mentioned, and I mean that. If a SN listed 3 names I simply added votes to each person mentioned. There were positive comments on just about every article. Thank you all.

First and foremost, thank you all so very much for participating in the contest. This is the largest I have done to date, and I (we) learned a great deal from your in-depth articles. I appreciate the time, energy, and effort put forth in your research/documentation.
Without further ado I would like to announce the winner(s). By the narrowest of margin (2 Votes) the winner is drum roll… _____________________tacobelldog52________________________ Congratulations. Your article on the half dime was thorough, well written, interesting, and informative. You received the most votes from Coin Talk senior numismatists. For your efforts, you will be rewarded by the beautiful naturally toned Washington Quarter, as well as a 1935G Silver Certificate. Congratulations sir. Moving on… there was a tie for 2[SUP]nd[/SUP] place. That going to zach24 and koen. Congratulations you two. Zach, for your wonderful article on the Seated Liberty, you will be awarded a 1914 VF Barber Quarter, as well as a 1953b (red-seal Jefferson two-dollar bill. Finally, koen. Although English is not your native language, you put together an outstanding piece on the 1 Franc as well as an elaborate time-line of the history of Belgium. Thank you for sharing. Seeing that Belgium has seen so much war, and been dubbed “The Battleground of Europe,” I found it fitting to award you with a 1923 Peace Dollar.
I would like to mention that although these 3 were in the top for votes, just about every person who responded was given a vote or mentioned in a positive manner from CT Senior Numismatists. All contest articles were scanned for piracy and despite (a few copied sentences) no articles were copied.
All U.S./Canada shipping will be mailed out tomorrow, and International shipping will be sent out on Monday.
Thank you again for participating and voting. Remember all that wrote an article will receive a prize. If you did not PM me your address please do so by tomorrow. I did not mean to exclude any senior numismatists in the voting process, it was a matter of who was on during the same time that I was.
Thank You Kindly,
~Jason Becker

(If deemed appropriate by CT administration, I humbly request that the article written by tacobelldog52 be published on the homepage)

Hello all,

Just wanted to let you know that all prizes were mailed out today via USPS (except CAZ.. please send address again). Also if you open up your package and there is an envelope be careful when tearing, because there is most likely a note in there. Thanks again for participating.
