Greetings fellow collectors! I wanted to put together a small collection of stuff for a lucky YN out there in time for Christmas. Here are the rules....

  1. Pick a number from 1 to 101; no edits and only one guess per person( you can put more than one guess in if you have more
    than one YN, but use only one post to do so)
  2. Eligible to only YN or loving adults with a YN(that promise to give the items to the YN)
  3. Contest runs until 12 pm EST 12/12/2020
  4. After the time expires, I will have one of my YNs pick a number. Closest guess wins!!!
  5. In the event of a tie, first guess wins.
  6. Prizes are listed below, but there may be extra goodies thrown in :wink:
    Coin collecting books, Coin Folders, Random slabs, Roll of BU starter LMC, Large copper round, Novelty 16D dime and 1933
    Saint, collection of big foreign coins(my kids love big coins), and finally a Starter set of US Type coins.

Contest runs for one week! Good luck!!!

    After a busy morning of basketball, my YN got the opportunity to write his number. We had several close numbers, but only one person could win.....


    Congratulations to @DBSTrader2 with the winning pick of 58, six off of his guess of 64. PM me your address and Ill get stuff packaged up and ready to go out. Hopefully, I can get it to you before Christmas!

    Woo-Hoo! Thanks! My neice is going to have a HUGE surprise in her stocking this year!! Much appreciated! I'll PM you my addy just as soon as I get back from playing my number in the POWERBALL!! (I feel lucky)

    What year was your niece born? I have some extra proof sets. If I have her birth year, Ill throw that in as well. You might think about picking up a 59-2009 folder for the cent roll. If its like the other rolls I acquired, lots of earlier dates and newer dates, but lots of open holes at the middle. I only had blank cent folders and more modern to throw in, but Ill leave that up to you.

    Good luck with the drawing!
