I Finally Completed This Sample Slab Set

KellenCoin

On NGC's Instagram page they periodically hold giveaways with various sample slabs. So far, they have conducted 5, each with a different sample:
Just 10 were made of each of these
-1987-S 25c for their 30th Anniversary
-1987-S 1c to promote their Instagram page
-2019-D $1 to Promote the Great American Coin Hunt
-1987-S 25c to celebrate 5,000 followers
I was fortunate enough to acquire one of each of these. Then, they held their fifth drawing yesterday of a 2019 Silver Eagle to celebrate 10,000 followers and I was so lucky that I actually won the giveaway! Just 15 were made, and I won one of them.
It is a rare accomplishment for sample slabs collectors to claim they actually completed a set, but I am able to make this claim today!
Also, if you are interested in owning one of your own of these rare slabs, one is up for auction on my eBay. Username: kellenscoins.
Here is a picture of mine so far.

Here is a picture (not mine) of the 10,000 follower sample I won but have not yet received.

I like how they are doing these on Instagram for YNs.

PCGS is active there too:

Have you noticed that the giveaways are on Instagram and not the forums. Is that a hint

I think they are trying to appeal to new collectors and non collectors. Or younger generations. It is a good idea for generating interest and publicity.

You have to have tenacity to win some of these giveaways. Congrats @KellenCoin!
