<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Johndoe2000$, post: 2561048, member: 82085&quot;]Hello all, I am posting this in appreciation to all the wonderful replies I received after posting on the </p><p>&quot;COOLEST ANCIENT COIN GIVEAWAY CONTEST&quot;&nbsp; thread posted by the extremely generous&nbsp; SALLENT.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; ( Please read that thread if you haven&#039;t yet. )</p><p>I wish to personally thank all that replied to my post about my Significant Other. Tears rolled while reading them. You made our day, to say the least. Some went above and beyond though, and deserve recognition.</p><p>Steveareno, ( contest winner. ), Hoth2, and Chrsmat71. They each offered gifts which were humbly accepted by Debra, ( my S.O. ). I would like to clear up a couple of things, then Deb also will post her thoughts.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; First, we have been together for almost 20 years, not married. Second, while we aren&#039;t in good financial shape, I could afford to purchase an inexpensive ancient or two. ( especially after some suggestions from members here. ) I had to make that clear for my ( what&#039;s left ) pride. And now Debra....</p><p>&nbsp;Hi, I am Debra and just wanted to thank all of you that were so nice and wrote such nice words, and prayers. I asked John to try to win the contest for me after I seen what he was doing. He was being his normal self by writing his ( what he thinks is ) funny entries, but I asked him to put in an entry describing why I should win the contest. John reluctantly wrote about my health condition, and the fact that I loved the looks of that coin. John and I both like coins, ( I would say that John loves them ) I like the old ones, and the new ones. Some he says are just rounds, but I think they are pretty regardless. Our tastes vary. John wants to start getting into ancient coins, but the ones he likes are very different than the ones I do. You made me very happy with your selflessness, and kindness. I&#039;ll never forget that. Thank You so much ........&nbsp; Debra .......</p><p>&nbsp;Hey, John, again, I would like to thank you all one More time for your kindness, especially when I am new to the forum, and ancient coins and give a big thanks also to Bob, who sold me my first ancient coin, I&#039;ll post pictures soon, (silver drachma, Viceroy Peithon 325 BC .there is a lot more, but I don&#039;t understand all the attributes yet, )and has offered to help me on my journey to understand and appreciate the history of ancient coins ( RRUS9999 ) @ EBAY. He is a very nice gentleman, who is having health issues of his own. Check out his store, he sells ancients, as well as artifacts that are ancient as well. Before I leave I want to thank all involved with that thread once more, and say how much that it means to us, we&#039;ll never forget your kindness. This forum is unbelievable, and the people&nbsp; are incredibly nice, helpful, and supportive. Love you guys. Oh, here is a picture of a very happy Debra, that is priceless to me. Thanks again.</p><p><br /></p><p>John.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
