Seeking Appliactions for Numismatic Gladiator V

The first "Numismatic Gladiator" competition was a success and the second one even more so. I want to thank everyone who participated by commenting and/or voting.

Because NG I - IV were so well received we want to continue the series. We are looking for two people who would be interested in competing in NG V. Please read the rules below before you express your interest.

RULES:

1. You will purchase a Canadian coin which can include provinces or tokens.

2. Gladiators may not spend more that $20 excluding postage/tax on their coin (but may spend less).

3. The coin must be purchased online and it must be listed for sale on an open and public website. This includes auction sites such as, but not limited to eBay or dealer web pages. Coins that are on sale of that you are able to buy at a discount are not eligible unless the original price was less than $20.

4. Gladiators MUST actually purchase their entry coin.

5. Gladiators will not be allowed to reveal which coin is theirs, except to The Directors (LordMarcovan and Aethelred) until after the voting has closed, this includes PMs, people who have already voted et cetera.

6. The Directors of "Numismatic Gladiator" will select two Gladiators from those who have applied, these Gladiators will remain anonymous except to The Directors until the close of voting.

7. Both The Gladiators and The Directors may vote (without revealing how they have voted) as they see fit in the poll.

8. Any and all disputes that arise will be settled by The Directors.

9. Both of The Directors must be in agreement before any decisions are made.

10. The winning Gladiator will receive an icon that they may display in their sig line.

If you agree to all of the above terms and would like to apply to become a Gladiator in NG V please express your interest by posting to this thread. If you are not selected as one of the two Gladiators this time, remember there will be future Numismatic Gladiator competitions.

    I'd like to see Jackthecat face off against the 'Shroom. MuskyJim would be great too, of course, but let's see what our rapier-wielding feline friend can do, shall we? image

    I tell ya, the idea of squaring off with the 'Shroom for something Canadian is a bit scary.



    Now that we have covered lite- (US), dark- (world), far- (exonumia) and grey- (Canada) sides what comes next? And, do we need a 'side name for Ancients/Medievals?



    Themes like battles, type of alloy (just saw something about iron coins), anything but round? I'm going to need a rematch at some point image

    OK, I have received word that both of our NG5 gladiators have made their purchases.



    I am waiting for them to PM me links to their purchases and will try to get the poll thread up before long.
