My non-coin Christmas giveaway - Winner is Shimmy

in Coin Swaps, Tags and Giveaways
Due to all of the great responses and PM's I recieved from everyone about the Mag glass I sent to Spooly and he thoughtfully posted a thank you thread and a Pic in the US coin forum about it(see pic there - Vipers other hobby) as well as the number of people asking if I sell them (I don't), I have decided to give one away here for all interested (I'll have to make it first) But I though it would be nice for someone to know they have an extra present coming.

While I've wanted to do a coin givaway for some time all my stuff falls into two categories 1)who'd want that, and 2)I can't part with it.

I'll let this thread run until next Friday 12/21 until 8pm EST and randomly have my daughter draw a winner.

It may not look exactly like the one in the pic as I make these by hand and each on is uniquely different. And I may use a differnt exotic wood as well, but the glass and hardware will be the same.

    Please count me in, thanks! I loved the magnifying glass that picture posted the picture of. I have a friend who makes wooden pens, and I'm trying to talk him into trying something a little different.

    Ooh, that would be sweeeeet! Count me in. Thanks for the opportunity, Viper.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    PS! If I don't win and you ever decide to sell em give me a shout.

    Ok - here is how the winner was picked: I saw that there were 34 posts requesting entry into this giveaway so I asked my 6 yr old to pick a number between 1 and 34. She, after much contemplation, decided on 4 because it is a nice small even number, although just for whoever had the numbers 12, 17, and 5 were in the running but finally she decided on 4 as being her favorite and I have just now looked on the posts and see that Shimmy is the winner! For clarification I started counting with Blackhawk as number 1 and went from there.

    Shimmy please PM me with your address.

    Thanks everyone for playing along. I will be sure to do another one soon since this seemed to be something many of you liked and would appreciate rather than some of my coins, but I am sifting through them to find some for a giveaway as well.

    WOW, WHAT a beautiful Magnifying glass !!!!
    I won't post a pic or you people will be begging MR. Viper for another draw for one of these Colletor pieces. It is such a perfect piece I don't know if i'll use it, don't want finger prints etc to get on it.

    Thanks Again for such a nice "MAG Glass" imageimageimage
