Hello Mr. Jester,

I am a US-PHIL coin collector fanatic. Please count me in. Thanks in advance!!

DBSTrader2

I'm overdue for a win - - I think I've been "shut-out" thru this '05 year................................ Thanks for the opportunity!

I collect modern (1800's-date) U.S., Canada, Maritimes, Mexico, Great Britain, Australia & New Zealand, and Euros.

Lately, my attention has been drawn mostly to Canadian tokens and the Maritimes provinces. It would be awesome if you had any such items under your tree!

Thanks!

Happy Holidays 1Jester!!!

I only collect South American Frontier Gold from 1855 to 1857.

Oh, and a smattering of Us-Phil, Early 20th c French, and British Victorian Silver.

Popcoin

I usually dont get in on these giveraways because most are for coins I dont collect and would rather someone who does collect them win.

I collect coins with bears on them and Irish coins.

Thanks for the chance,
Larry

Thanks for the chance.

I mainly collect Canadian coins. I also collect US Morgan dollars, as well as world coins.

Stork

I am still occasionally plugging away at the OFEC collection, a Japanese type set and medals particularly focusing on Mommy/Baby themes, though I've started noticing a bit of a St. George thing going on lately. I also like getting the annual basic silver bullion collection (ie the Panda, SAE, Britannia, Onza, Australian, Chinese Fan etc). Plus gold. I like gold.

Nice to see you Jester!

My interests are everything as a history + culture buff

I have a lil focus on Canadian maritimes, tokens, Asian cash, Roman Imperial, hard to obtain Countries/issuers, stuff that takes 6 months to finally fully ID, India and Middle Eastern coins, coins with crazy shapes

thanks for the chance, MERRY CHRISTMAS!

+ a happy soon-birthday to the kid!

tbirde56

Please put my name in too. I'm into anything and everything.

coinpictures

Pretty much anything from 1600 to 1945, but especially 19th-century British dark unc coppers.

Merry Darkside Christmas to one and all!

mainline13

When I ever get an opportunity to get back to actively collecting, I will be a one-per-country collector, with a focus on the history. The plan is still somewhat sketchy, but I hope to start with a few ancients (Greece, Rome, China), and bring each area of the world up to the current time, advancing with not-completely-random examples of coinage from various areas/eras.

When it gets to relatively modern era (starting late 18th C or so), I would like to represent each nation's changes with a coin for each, but will most likely settle for regionals. For example, one 8-Real coin to represent all the New World spanish colonies, then separate coins for each independent nation.

Thanks for your generosity.

docday2003

thanks for the giveaway...I hope being a greysider is good enough to qualify! I collect Canadian, and the occasional darkside coin that has a cool appearance.

ccrdragon

Thanks Jester! I'm an African Copper fanatic and ... what am I saying... I'm just plain a COPPER fanatic!!!

laserart

I'm a one per country collector. But if you must know I have some greyside stuff and if you don't tell anyone I have liteside stuff too, mostly from when I was a kid. Started when I was about 9 so that is well over 40 something years ago. More like 47.

Here are the first 13 grades that I have just received for the 33 coin submission for my 17th to Mid-19th Century European Crowns & Thalers Collection submitted to PCGS on October 28th, as previously posted in This Thread.

I am very pleased that all coins were certified (no DNC's), with only one "AU-58" for a beautiful coin that looks like a gorgeous lustrous MS-63 to me.

I'd value any comments from some of the experienced World Crown Forum collectors, about this first submission, and about any of the coins which may have high value due to their grades, since I am not yet familiar with current market values for World Crowns. Most of these coins were purchased about 20 years ago, during the early to mid 1980's, during the early years of my coin collecting.

Thanks in advance for your replies and comments.

1. 1857-A Thaler AUSTRIA MS64

Neat giveaway. Merry Christmas. If I win, please pick out something worldly that would help encourage my 2 early teen daughters get the collecting bug. Don't have a real focus right yet for myself so I think that would make my girls a neat Christmas addition.
