WINNER OF THE MACEDONIAN COIN IS JZRARITIES!!!
WINNER OF THE ROMANIAN COIN IS COLINCMR!
CONGRATULATIONS GUYS....PM ME YOUR ADDRESS'S image


Well folks I hope you had a nice vacation from my ramblings because as of today I am officially back image We are 100% up and running in the new house and new city and new job....wow....that was a tough transition! There were a couple times I just wanted to quit alltogether and go live in a cardboard box at the local park but we managed to get through it ok. The garage still looks like a bomb went off but the rest of the house is coming together quite well and I must say I do like the new place, ALOT. Most importantly my internet hook up was connected today and the TV will be hooked up in a couple hours image It's going to take me a long time to do a bunch of reading to catch up on all the forums that's for sure.

As promised, my first post from the new house is a giveaway image The two prizes are the coins pictured below. I can't think of any fancy ways to do the giveaway so just post a reply if you want in and on Monday July 4th at 10:00PM Pacific Time my lady will draw two names from a hat. The first name gets the Macedonian coin and the second name gets the Romanian coin. Good luck to all and it sure is good to be back image


Coin #1
Macedon Under Roman Rule After 168 B.C., AR Tetradrachm 31mm., 15.50g., Macedonian sheild, Artemis in center with bow and quiver at shoulder.
Club dividing legend; AP monogram above; all within oak wreath; lightning bolt to l. of wreath. SNG Copenhagen 1311 VF. Some crystallization. Small test cut at edge. Retail value $100.00ish...give or take a bit. (This coin has provenance! It came from Civitas image )

Coin #2
1910 Romanian 2 Lei, Silver, Original toning, circulated....VFish. Retail price unknown as these seem to hammer rather inconsistantly lately. But its worth more melt value lol.

    I am going to upgrade soon but I haven't yet. It seemed like a very liked design so I figured it would be great for a giveaway image

  • Congrats on the new house and the move in, I hate the thought of moving. I think if I move again I will just haul everything out to the back yard
    and burn it, except for the coins...... image
