Background;
I started collecting as a young boy(gramps did it to me),I'm now 51 years old.I mainly collect early dollars but do just about any type of coins.I can remember my first bust dollar,It was like a dream come true.I started with G's & VG's and am now at the VF & XF range.At one time I owned 19 early dollars,I just sold 7 to buy my latest coin,a 1795 Flowing Hair with silver plug in PCGS xf 45,that puts me down to 13.
It seem that just about everyone would like to own a bust dollar,no matter what the grade,so,as a token of my thankfolness to the great people of this board,and to David Hall,for letting us have this board,
I'm putting up a Bust Dollar as a give away coin( what am I,NUTS) that puts me down to 12.
Now the coin is not a B.U. coin but,a bu (beat up)coin. Sorry I can't post a picture of it,the winner will just have to wait untill it gets there.
All you have to do is reply to this post before 2-1-05,6PM board time.I will draw a winner and let you know by 2-2-05.
Thanks again to all and, a special Thanks to the people I have met,hoping to meet many more.
Everyone's welcome to enter once.
Good luck.

OK,here's what I did,
I gave every one a number,
I got out the poker chips and marked them with a felt tip pen,
I put the chips in a plastic bag,
Shooked and stired for three min,
Reached in and pick out,
THE WINNER,
and that is,
Louis CONGRATS.

Do not count me in the lottery. I only wish to say, publicly, that this is a very nice thing you are doing. I also wish to say that I was right about you: you are a good guy. Hope to down another couple of beers with you in the future, this time on me!
Best regards,
