    Mango would peck on my phone or camera instead .... I usually give him a bowl of paper strips to pick and most time I had to chase him to collect them <3

    I can see from the holes in the paper that Mango had a "hand" (beak) in the drawing.

    Congrats to winners! And to PF -your method for choosing the winners was very creative! We all got to see lots of examples of neat coins and participate in anticipation of the moment. The addition of a runner up winner was a testament to your generosity.

    Indeed. The thread was informative people speculated about the grade and even the authenticity of the prize, and showed some of their own gold.

    A contest that was fun AND educational. :p
