We hit the 10,000 set landmark and will be having a drawing today for the trip to Las Vegas and the PCGS Invitational. A winner will be announced very soon!

BJ,
Just to keep the anxiety level down, you could just pick me and let everyone else relax.

cladking · March 24, 2004 10:32PM

Cool.

That was fast!

DMWJR · March 24, 2004 11:00PM

If Tina Turner had it right, and love does have anything to do with it, I'd really love to attend the Vegas show on a free pass. My wife can't stand me talking about coins anymore, and would really like me out of the house so she can take some time off from coins.

I think the prize should be awarded using the same criteria as a government grant; it goes to the most needy among us. That would be me.

BJ,

My congratulations all around to PCGS and staff, especially David Hall and you for instituting and maintaining the PCGS set registry. It has been an innovative and very worthwhile mechanism for the maturing certified coin collecting community to become closer and more knowledgeable. Maintaining the registry is costly and time consuming, but it benefits us all.

My hat's off to you and have a bottle of champagne or two to celebrate!

egsantos · March 25, 2004 3:54AM

Did I win yet? I have never been to Vegas

Bear · March 25, 2004 6:54AM

I think that the award should go to a bear.

Mistercoinman · March 25, 2004 7:05AM

I will be the happy winner of the Vegas trip. I need a vacation and a few new coins for my sets.

dpoole · March 25, 2004 7:09AM

My wife says that I need to take her to Las Vegas or she'll make me sleep on the porch.

Save my marriage, BJ!!

BTW: congrats, egsantos!

Hobbit · March 25, 2004 7:17AM

itsnotjustme · March 25, 2004 7:38AM

When do I win??

foodude · March 25, 2004 8:30AM

I'm checking my e-mail every 5 minutes to see if I won, kinda like how Russ checks on his submissions every 5 minutes

cosmicdebris · March 25, 2004 9:51AM

I keep checking my email too, nothing but spam for porn, a bigger you know what and someone wants to clean my imaginary septic tank.

foodude · March 25, 2004 10:09AM

A winner will be announced very soon!

Hmmm... it's after 6 pm PST, and I see BJ is still on-line (at work?). I guess it's taking longer than planned to write 10,000+ sets/names on little pieces of paper to throw in the hat. Or maybe she sent someone out to get a bigger hat. Or is HRH the one that will pick the name, and he's wants to finish his lasgna first

izzy452 · March 25, 2004 10:27AM

Compa · March 25, 2004 11:09AM

So what's happening?

Should I be checking my email?

Will it be announced here?

Is HRH going to call me at home?

It's almost my bedtime and I'll just never be able to get to sleep with the expectation of the phone ringing.
