Aspie_Rocco · January 24, 2019 7:42PM

Gorgeous hints of coppery red tone!

I opened the package and saw this beautiful lady in my lap, and I was thinking, “Hey girl, what are you doing?” But I already know, she is here to spend a long time with me
I am very grateful to be the Winner of the Day 4 of the PCGS Giveaway contest. Thank you much. Opening this package has been the highlight of a difficult week, and this is a sure lift to the spirit.
With Gratitude
Aspie Rocco

Lol, thank you. That is why the Free* asterisk was there, not sure how high the percentage is for prizes like this, but it is ok, I hope.

dpoole · January 24, 2019 7:48PM

Woo-hoo!!

Paradisefound · January 24, 2019 7:48PM

HeatherBoyd · January 24, 2019 8:19PM

Congrats @Aspie_Rocco thanks for participating!

Aspie_Rocco · January 24, 2019 8:19PM

Is this a known Variety of some sort? Flyaway Hair.
Looks like die scratches into lettering of Liberty

bolivarshagnasty · January 24, 2019 8:36PM

Aspie, You've been studying Jeffersons with a loupe for some time. Your head will explode if you start looking at 19th century coins with a 20x loupe.

I agree! I recently picked up some 1830-1877 half dollar types and there is so much going on. I was thinking earlier how to describe all the hand carved “imperfection” of the details I see, best term I can muster is “Jaunty”

jwitten · January 24, 2019 9:15PM

Congrats! Technically, you won $5 legal tender. Tax on that shouldn't be too bad...

toyz4geo · January 24, 2019 9:15PM

Congrats!

Batman23 · January 24, 2019 9:47PM

Congrats on the new addition. Price couldn't have been better. This is a pretty impressive giveaway and promotion. I'm seeing a lot of new additions to the registry and forum. I'm also surprised on the winner count from venues I have never looked at. Glad to see you were able to win one!

oih82w8 · January 24, 2019 9:54PM

Pronto delivery nonetheless. Nice piece! Congrats!

TopoftheHill · January 25, 2019 9:14AM

Congrats on the free gold...but there is no way I would give that coin as high as a 63 grade.

Peace_dollar88 · January 25, 2019 9:19AM

awesome. congrats on the win! that's cool!

KeithMS70 · January 25, 2019 10:13AM

Who says there is no Santa Claus in numismatics? One way or another there are freebies almost every day somewhere!

asheland · January 25, 2019 11:59AM

That's sweet, congrats! I have a $5 Liberty that looks similar and is also graded 63. I agree with that grade.

asheland · January 25, 2019 12:00PM

clarkbar04 · January 25, 2019 12:09PM

I for one LOVE the originality of that coin. There is another thread about "original skin" ...well this certainly fits the bill.

tommy44 · February 12, 2019 6:42PM

Congratulations, I like it a lot.

Hemispherical · February 12, 2019 6:44PM

Congratulations! That's a nice Quarter Eagle.

I worked with a guy who won a new car and all he could do was complain about how he had to pay taxes on the 'income.' Funny, he didn't want to decline the new car ... just complain about how unfair it was.

You should have told him to give you the car.

I did.
He didn't.
He still complained.
