My son was the lucky Thanksgiving winner from @coinscratchfever . Coins arrived today.
First, he was super excited to get mail. And I let him use his knife to open the box.
After a small discussion of knife safety, he started cutting away from his body...
Then, he started digging out goodies....
Little Sis was excited too!
Finally, sorted through his bounty!
Special thanks to Chris, @CoinscratchFever !

A great giveaway by @CoinscratchFever !
Very nice follow up post by @erwindoc !
Great idea, CoinScratchFever. I may do something with my mint and proof sets akin to your Thanksgiving YN giveaway. I have always tried to be generous to YN's but that is going the extra step. I believe if enough of us did such a large giveaway it would be more likely to draw a youngster's attention than a single or few coins. It would give them so much to do looking for varieties and so much education learning what to look for in all the denominations. Absolute great idea.
Thanks and congrats to your son, erwindoc.

Great post, Jason - wow, what a haul, from a very generous forum member!
Greg,
I was beyond speechless when I saw his number drawn. He is a very lucky boy. I will say that I had tons of fun watching him pull stuff out. I attempted to let him use my loupe to look at the 79 sets for type 1 and type 2 S coins. I tried to draw a picture, but dont know if he truly saw what he was supposed to.
Holy Cow!
Great post @erwindoc and extremely generous giveaway from @CoinscratchFever!
In honor of the memory of Cpl. Michael E. Thompson
So glad you guys are enjoying it now.
It is through giving, that we receive. So be a cheerful giver
Now, I will go check the mailbox for some random gold
I will be doing a YN give-away for Christmas soon. Got home too late to get it pulled out. Look for it tomorrow if I have time!
Awesome!

My YN, he's a prankster like me.
Oh, Im sure she will get some duplicates. She has won her own contest on this forum in the past, so I didnt enter her in it.
You are truly a very special person
The joy in the winners eyes says it all
and the smile that is on my face cannot match the smile that is on yours
What a beautiful life lesson you have shown to your own children and others that are unknown
Have a great holiday season
Kennedys are my quest...
Excellent!

Thank you Wayne! And I did indeed receive, today I closed two sales for 30K that have been lost in the weeds the past few months and happenstance fell outta the sky today
Be blessed & carry on!
Dang looks good!
Nicely done! Fine gift.
That's the most awesome giveaway I've ever seen here. CSF is a class act!
I knew it would happen.
Wow, @CoinscratchFever - that is a truly generous giveaway! You rock! That YN will never forget that day, for sure!!!
Rocking my "shiny-object-syndrome"!!!

Kennedys are my quest...
Wow what a give away!! @CoinscratchFever that is a awesome thing to do!! Im sure that YN will never forget that day so glad to see something bright happening in this world for a change.
I missed you guys so much. All of you are awesome. Love to all. ❤ Mike
THAT IS SWEET!!!!
I have a very good friend I gave his son some coins for his 10th birthday. He always tells me he looks at them. Gave him a Morgan, peace dollar, walking liberty, standing library, some others but his favorite is the large cent. Definitely a good feeling when I go over his house and Evan has it spread out on the table with his plastic safe.
Better than a compass as a present!😎
Nice job keep it up CoinscratchFever
@CoinscratchFever You've created a monster!!! Success!!!!
