    If you give it to me I promise not to judge you negatively.

    Some personal trivia: an 1851 gold dollar was my first gold coin, given to me by my grandmother when I was young. (It has the same weakness in the center of the reverse).

    Be very careful with raw US gold dollars. They have been very heavily counterfeited and many of the counterfeits are really good.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    Just want to say that you are a beautiful woman and I like your new avatar Paradisefound, that Hibiscus fits nicely on you. (Trust me, I am not trying to bribe you by saying nice things to you, I just like to compliment people is all) You don't have to bribe or give gold away to anyone, especially a nice looking coin like that one. I have seen you give away a lot of very nice coins in the past, that I would love to have in my collection and know that whoever got them had to be very happy about getting them but I know it makes you happy to do it so you do what makes you happy but I don't think I could give away something that nice away (unless I was about to die and knew it would make someone very happy like I know that coin would lol).

    Hosting a Miss Coin Universe pageant? Anyhow, you are spoiling us rotten with all these giveaways. I would have to say the best prize members received was not the coin but your passion to make this forum a better place and full with joys. For that, we thanks you from the bottom of our hearts.

    Back on track, how dare you to think of giving out gold and stealing my 30 seconds of fame ? I was planning to host a contest on my 1000th post to show some appreciations to our community. :(

    Hmmm, a little gold? Reminds me of a Led Zeppelin song...

    Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while
    Think I see my friends coming
    Riding a many mile
    Friends did you get some silver?
    Did you get a little gold?
    What did you bring me my dear friends
    To keep me from the gallows pole?

    Like the new avatar. Maybe the bribe is remove the Libertas from the holder. Nice prizes but everyone here loves you no matter.

    My wife planted some hibiscuses (hibicis?) in our (her) garden and they are blooming quite nicely in the East Texas heat.

    If you are giving away a one-dollar gold piece that is ... well ... very generous, if not just plain 'over the top.' Whatever your motives, may you be brought joy and happiness.

    The choice - as all choices are - is yours...you are already accepted, liked and respected here on the forum. If you choose to have a contest or giveaway, then do so.... if not, that is fine too... I enjoy your posts and lighthearted humor.... Above all, continue to have fun, enjoy your coins, and get some more. Cheers, RickO

    The reverse look suspect to me. Not as much with the obverse though. Might just be the pictures. If I win the giveaway I can inspect it a little better!! :D
