Home Coin Swaps, Tags and Giveaways

Another 1000th post-winners announced.

I joined this forumn in Feb of 2007. I have met many new fellow coin collectors since then and have had many questions answered through this forumn. In the spring I will be meeting in person Lord M. Since I am coming up on my 1000th post I decided to have a giveaway. Nothing fancy, but perhaps something you don't have already. Last month my daughter and son-in-law invited my wife(happily married 42 years) to join them in a cottage at Cape Cod for 4 days. Had a great time. While wondering around the Cape, I came on a coin shop. Purchased a small bag of foreign coins. The contest is as follows. There are four questions. The closest to the right answers will win a choice of three prizes. The second closest gets to pick next and the third place will receive the remaining prize.

#1-How many coins did I receive for my $20?
#2-What denomination was the largest? Extra credit for naming the country.
#3-What denomination was the smallest? Extra credit fror naming the country.
#4-What was the oldest date?
#5-How many were in the 1800's

The prizes
#1-Canadian small cents-1920-1921-1928-1929-1931-1932-1933-1934-1935-1937
#2-1944d 1/10 guilden in au from Curacao.((.0288 asw)
#3-1923 one franc from france-1928 10 rappan from switzerland-1905 ten cents from Belgium
Contest will close at midnight on October 23, 2012.

  • Thanks for trying Bob-but the contest ended at midnight on October 24th. You would have been fourth out of four however. Still waiting for a response from ICsoccer.
