Should come up 1 - 3 - 7 - 21 - 44 and 29.
When it does, I'm buying everyone something cool.
Feel free to place your order now.


EDITED TO ADD:

Weasels !!!!

They delayed the drawing when they saw my post had the winning number !!!
Then changed the number.

That does it...

Getting another ticket. Look for the new winning number to be.

Everyone who responsed so far will get their posted "want coin" plus another one --- so start shopping!

( I understand the State of Ohio will be selling soon. ... but this is a positive and uplifting post.... )

I'm thinking of making an offer to the Smithsonian to get all their coins out of storage.

    I like that little gold coin on the current cover of Spink's annual. The novelty has worn off, it shouldn't cost too much now....

    There's an Una and the Lion on the block at the Goldberg auction. $50,000 should cover it. It you can swing the rest of the 1839 GB proof pieces while you're at it, you'd be a hero!!

    The coin I've always dreamed about is the 1911 Canadian silver dollar prototype. I think last time it sold for over $3 million, so I wouldn't even ask you to buy that for me,
    if it even ever comes up for sale again.

    The fine print ... these coins can't be sold after I give them to you.
    When the time comes, you give them to a charity / foundation we'll set up.


    The 1931 SA Proof.... done !
    The Swiss Presentation set..... done !
    The Canadian dollar prototype ... I don't know if prototypes count...


    and for Wybrit... whose posts I always enjoy....


    Lot 2668 Great Britain. Proof "Una & Lion" gold 5 Pounds, 1839. Victoria.Young Head. S.3851; Fr-386; KM-742. Produced by the great 19th-century coin engraver William Wyon, this is among the most famous and desirable of British coins. The obverse design features a young bust of Victoria aged 20 years, while the reverse has the Queen dressed as Una leading the British lion. This gorgeous specimen is remarkably free from scuffs and has a very minimum amount of the hairlines that other examples of this rare coin fall victim to, and the cameo effect of the detailed design is unusual. It would not be easy to find a more exciting example. NGC graded Proof 63 Ultra Cameo.
    Estimated Value $45,000-50,000.

    Provenance: The Cheshire Collection.
    Current Opening Bid: $41,999


    Let's get a few!!!! When's lot 2668 come up? Anyone have a bidder number?.

    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    I won't ask for much. How's about a matching set, 1914 Canadian $5 & $10 coins in MS 63 or better? image
