<p>[QUOTE="Ken Dorney, post: 2584000, member: 76086"]OK. Those entering are diminishing. Not sure if I am offering crummy coins or not (maybe, possibly, likely). I did mention they were coming completely at random from my bag. So, this week I decided to pick specifically (yea, maybe I am compromising myself, but heck, I think people should appreciate, right?). A sestertius, a denarius, a shattered Chinese Zhou Dynasty bronze cowrie (maybe one can glue it together, it is a project). Finally, an ounce of copper. Copper? Yea, well, I bought something on Ebay and they guy just sent it to me. No interest for me, but maybe someone else will or pass it on to someone else.</p><p><br /></p><p>To go over the rules again as some have wondered week to week: This contest is open to anyone, anywhere in the world. You pay nothing, I will handle postage. Just reply to the conversation saying you are interested, I will enter you. I will pick the winner at random on Friday (or as in this week maybe on Monday!).</p><p><br /></p><p>What are my motivations? Just to promote interest in ancient coins and history. None of these coins are blockbuster, but they all have history. I wont attribute them for you. There are ample resources on the net for you to figure them out (though this week has one fully attributed). My wife asked me if I was going to write them off on taxes. Nope. I lose enough money as it is as a dealer. Any more and the IRS would surely audit me!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]561465[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
