All e-mails must be received by me before the deadline on Saturday. No entry will be accepted after 12:01 AM CST on December 5,2009</p><p><br /></p><p>3) For an official entry to be accepted you must:</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; a) include a complete list of the coins you intend to buy with your virtual cash. Coins in this list can be any coin listed in the PCGS price guide at <a href="http://www.pcgs.com/prices/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgs.com/prices/" rel="nofollow">http://www.pcgs.com/prices/</a>. You are allowed to buy gold and silver eagles, but you must buy them at the price guide prices, not the bullion price. At the end of the contest we can compare to the current price of gold, silver and platinum. This competition is about investing in coins, not metals, but we can see how the coin boys do against the pure &quot;metal heads&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>ALSO</b></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; b) each entry must also include prices as listed currently on: <a href="http://www.pcgs.com/prices/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgs.com/prices/" rel="nofollow">http://www.pcgs.com/prices/</a> If you don&#039;t include the prices, I can&#039;t accept the entry because it would be too hard to research them all myself.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>AND</b></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; c) post your entry in the thread before 12:01AM CST on Monday December 8, 2009.</p><p><br /></p><p>4) No discussion posts will be allowed in the thread. I will post a discussion thread for the contest.</p><p><br /></p><p>5) No editing of anyone&#039;s list will be allowed within the contest thread. The post must <b>exactly</b> match the one sent to the e-mail address.</p><p><br /></p><p>6) Entries not sent to the contest e-mail address prior to the contest will not be accepted and will be removed from the thread.</p><p><br /></p><p>7) Contest ends December 1, 2010 at 12:01 AM CST</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b><u>WINNING:</u></b></p><p><br /></p><p>Winners will be determined by the following method: </p><p><br /></p><p>On December 1, 2010 any eligible entry may be presented for judgement. The entry that is judged to have the highest accumulated value will be declared the winner. (That&#039;s right, folks, You don&#039;t have to have the highest accumulation, you only have to be the highest one who submits their entry for judgement.) </p><p><br /></p><p>All decisions regarding winners will be final.</p><p><br /></p><p>In case of ANY dispute, I will be the sole judge and arbitor and I reserve the right to discuss the issue with Speedy or another moderator before making my final decision.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I will guarantee at least one prize to the winner of the contest, maybe we&#039;ll be able to gather up a few more things, but I don&#039;t want to commit to something that I can&#039;t deliver. I will say though that the lessons that will present themselves will be prizes of their own!</p><p><br /></p><p>My picks will be sent to two independent people as e-mails from the contest e-mail so that they can be verified just like everyone else&#039;s. </p><p><br /></p><p>Make sure that you e-mail by Saturday, and post before Monday. Good luck and good learning! Let&#039;s have some fun![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
