Time for a Giveaway - New book - SCD's from the Pacific Coast Exhibitions - WINNER ANNOUNCED

Who wants to add this new hardcover book on so-called dollars to their collection?
Guess how many brass cartridge cases are in this pile. Various sizes, a few 223, 243, 270, 7mm to make it interesting.
I will announce the winner whoever has the closest guess by sometime around Saturday 1PM Pacific time. In case of a tie, I will be forced to flip a coin, so please try to avoid duplicating another person's exact guess. Good luck.
It is a 283-page book with free shipping and revisions to your guess are allowed until the end.
All thanks for this giveaway really should be directed to Jeff Shevlin for sending me this extra copy. He requested that if I already had one, that it be donated. I am just helping him to get his wish fulfillED
**The winner of the book with an amazing exact guess of 214, is @Pghpete. Congratulations. **

I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.

288, Thanks for the opportunity.
Looks like someone ordered the new Volume 1 catalog on top of previous purchases - nice gesture to the forum.
Yes, you are correct and special thanks should be given to Jeff Shevlin for his generosity and publication.

Thanks Gumby. As I mentioned to Goldminers, this is an uncharted area for me. I've heard of SCDs via this forum, but I don't have any. Let the learning begin!
Thanks for the contest.
Congrats @Pghpete! What a wonderful contest @Goldminers!
Just got the book, and what a beaut! It's brand new! I made sure I washed my hands before I even opened it. I just read the preface and flipped through several pages. What a great new side of collecting this brings me. Thanks so much Goldminers.
