July 4th YN giveaway East coast update. Need more entries!

Come on people, lets get some 16 years old and younger kids busy on the essays. So far I only have knowledge of three essays coming.

Contest is open to YN's 16 years of age and younger. A written essay will need to be recieved by july 3, 2005.

The title or subject of the essay is "What is your favorite coin and why?"


Here is a pic of some of the prizes to be given away!

    Ken,
    We have some new kids who came to the Frederick coin club at our meeting this week. I'll send them this link.

    Will all kids sending an essay receive something? It would be difficult for a 9-year-old to outwrite a 16-year-old.

    Ken,

    I emailed my nephew about the essay giveaway. He is 10 and been collecting for a few years. I think he will be entering.

    how are the prizes awarded?

    There are no winners or losers! If I have ten entries, I'll put together ten packages as equally divided as possible and seal them. Then I'll draw the address labels out of a bucket and attach one to each package!

    Ken,

    I just PM'd TPN for his mailing address, since we're in Salt Lake City. My son is deciding on his favorite coin (one of mine actually) and will send his essay off by Wednesday. I hope it makes it in time. You should have seen his eyes bug out when I showed him the prizes, it was a hoot!!
