Please read all the rules before entering the contest.</p><p><br /></p><p><b><u>Prizes</u></b></p><p>So, here is what you are really interested in...so I'll start with the prize. The winner of this contest (there will only be one winner) will receive a WWII Nazi Germany 1 pfennig set. This is a set of 2 coins, one of each type issued during WWII. The German's began issuing these coins in bronze early in the war and then changed to zinc as the war drew closer a close.
