VirtualWon · September 20, 2008 2:37PM

In celebration of my 48th b-day I'm having a 2 coin giveaway one for all ................ one just for the yn (young ones)

Now I have the task of figuring out what type of contest to have

but let's try this for the young I'll have a drawing putting all names in a hat and draw.

For all

maybe something alittle different .... a guessing game everyone gets 5 guesses if noone gets it in 5 guesses or by the end of the month I'll have a drawing like for the yns in case there are several that guess the same thing and are right I will put those names in a hat and draw a winner as well.....anyway this is what you are guessing I started a fad....a craze.....what ever you want to call it and now it's up to you to guess what it was.

have fun

btw: the coins are a raw 1901 barber quarter ( low grade ) for all
and for the young I'm making it a little sweeter 1949 s ngc graded ms 65 rd

this will close the last day of september 2008 winners will be posted the first weekend of october

Well noone guessed it (and I may use it again so I'm not saying lol ) so all names will go in the drawing for the 1901 barber quarter which I have not done yet but...

The winner for the MS lincoln worth around $15. is ........ (drum roll and trumpets here)

I'm 48 as well, but have already had two giveaways this year so far.

mkman123 · September 21, 2008 12:43AM

how do I win???

VirtualWon · September 21, 2008 1:02AM

For graded coin only.......................... If you are young (minor not yet 18) just ask to be entered.

For the raw coin....................... If you are going for the coin everyone can win make at least one guess as to what I did that became very popular (example tony hawk popularized .... skateboarding)
You can make uo to 5 guesses.

blueifalcon · September 21, 2008 1:23AM

Congrats on 48...Did you design and patent a particular type equipment for a certain type business?

VirtualWon · September 21, 2008 1:46AM

I'll count that as a guess, but no, it involves no monetary gain for me

btw you don't have to come up with an original answer ( unless you want to win ) , but like I said if noone get it by the end of the month all names are entered in a drawing, so you can enter anything like something already guessed or like the example I gave about Tony Hawk

And please let me know if you are young under 18 and you will be entered for the yn's drawing......don't forget to make a guess for the coin for everyone if you are young!!!
