(Closed) YN Giveway - Two graded World coins. One to each of first two respondents.

I have two PCGS graded World coins which I've recently upgraded that I would like to pass along to a couple of YN's that will appreciate them.

One coin to each of the first responders. I'll take responses from either a YN or their parent or guardian (as long as the coin is promised to the youngster :) ). First person to respond can pick the coin of their choice. The second to respond will receive the remaining coin. Please respond inside this thread. We'll then confirm shipping address via PM.

First option -- 1946(P) Ecuador 5 Centavos PCGS MS65 (pop 3/3). Produced at the Philadelphia mint for Ecuador. CuNi, 17 mm, 1.95 g. KM# 76b. Mintage 40,000,000. This coin has a PCGS TrueView image. I will note that in hand, this coin is essentially blast white with strong luster. It appears significantly lighter than the TrueView, which suggests a much darker coin.

Second option -- 1946(P) Venezuela 5 Centimos PCGS MS66 (pop 24/7). Produced at the Philadelphia mint for Venezuela. CuNi, 19.1 mm, 2.40 g. Y# 29a. Mintage 12,000,000. Unfortunately no PCGS TrueView for this coin, but there is an older PCGS scan available. This is a little luster bomb!!! The small contact mark to the left of the 5 on the reverse likely prevented this example from joining the seven coins graded at MS66+ (top pop grade).

Coins will be mailed to the two first responders early next week.

Have a great Memorial Day weekend!!!

Take care,

Jeff

    My YNs would love to have one of those! If this is just for YNs who post the board, I’m sure they’ll love them, too.
    Thanks for your generosity.

    Hey @ShaunBC5

    Great picture!!!

    Thanks for getting the youngsters interested!!!

    Nope, not just for the YN's that post here.

    Since you have two YN's, how about I send both so that each can have one? LOL, that way there would be no fightin'!!!

    This has been up for almost two days now and had enough views, so I'm cool with that. Let me know if you would like me to mail both your way. If yes, I'll mark this as closed and get them sent off Tuesday or Wednesday.

    You can PM me your mailing address.

    Take care,

    Jeff

    Check your PMs and thanks so much!
