It's my birthday, as has been pointed out. Guess that means I get to give the present.
Times are tough around here, so don't go 'spectin' nothin' special in my giveaway, though.
For a modest prize, how 'bout a 1983 UK eight-coin UNC set in the original packaging?
Post once to enter- I'll draw randomly later.

If by some miracle I should win, I have 3 YN (ages 8, 14 and 16) who will get to fight over it. lol
Again, nothin' too special there, either.
But free silver is ... free. And silver. Right? "Free" and "silver" are two nice words that go nicely together.
<< <i>Are you still collectin' the holeys? >>
Not actively, though a coin or two still finds me occasionally. I'm pretty jaded when it comes to my holeys these days, unless it's something like a gold coin or a thaler or a Draped Bust dollar or something of that ilk. I'm still collecting Seated dime love tokens by date (holey or not), but that's on a back burner at present.
Did you ever finish that state quarter set from circulation?
<< <i>Did you ever finish that state quarter set from circulation? >>
Sure did. Took me six months, as I recall. January to June.
I would try that with the new quarters, but in all of 2010, I have seen exactly ONE of them in circulation. I suppose the banks aren't getting them. It was fun, collecting strictly and exclusively from circulation. I might try it with nickels, too. Or do the quarters again. Who knows.
Shouldn't we be sending you birthday presents? That's how it works at our house.
P.S. -- Don't count my post as entry....in fact, you could put me down as a vote for one of moonbiter's kids if picked.

As you wish. I was only wearing my old Barber half icon for a little while, anyway, to give the default "Holey Hat Icon" a rest.
<< <i>Is it an unfortunate time of year for a birthday, because you receive the same single gift for both Christmas and the Birthday, plus it puts a strain on your liver to get smashed again on New Year's Eve three days later, after just barely recovering from the birthday hangover? >>
Well, Christmas was never a huge deal in my family anyway, and believe it or not, I've never touched that boozy stuff, having remained a lifelong teetotaller for all 45 years, so I must have the liver of a 16-year-old! (Unfortunately, I can't claim the same for my lungs, since I did pick up the tobacco vice some time back.)
Happy New Year, y'all.

Excellent, that being the case may we suppose you have a special predilection for Susan B. Anthony dollars since SBA herself was not merely a suffragist but equally a prohibitionist? And wasn't Abraham Lincoln a non-drinker himself, although he didn't go so far as to advocate prohibition, so shouldn't Lincoln cents also be among your favorites? Or would you say it's a bit too much to expect that anyone select their coin preferences on the basis of shared attitudes towards alcohol?
If you think you have it hard on the 28th, my aunt is a Chrismas baby!
