LOL...as you can see I am not that experienced in the forums. I guess you guys would like to know what you need to do to get those coins. It's a simple question. You have to guess my birthday....BUT you have to guess how many days into the year, starting from 1 Jan of the year of my birthday (1968), and guess numerically what day my birthmonth and actual birthdate fall on!!!! Example: If I was born on Feb 2, 1968 then the answer would be... 33 days into the year 1968. So just guess a simple number. LOL!!! Good Luckimage

    K...let me clarify. I was born in the year 1968. There are usually 365 days in a year (leap year). Guess a number that you think my birthday fall on. Example: If I was born on Jan 31, 1968 then the correct answer would be 31 days into the year 1968. I hope this clarifies things. I make a change to make things easier. The winner of my birthdate will get the Silver Eagle. I will draw a name out of a hat for the Silver Cuauhtemoc coins. Fair? I hope so. So guess a date or just enter for the second prize. Man, I didn't think it would be this hard to give away coins. LOL image

    You can only go 183 days into the year. After that, you would be going out of the year.

    Since 1968 was a long time ago and people weren't stuck on computers, games, TV, etc., they celibrated the Holidays at the end of December with parties and drinking and then after that ------------.
    That is why the majority of older people are born during the 9th Month of the year. Some in the 8th or 10th Month pending the amount of celibrating.
    Therefore I'll guess 248 days. That should put it around the start of September, the ninth month of the year.

    Hello,

    Not sure about your reply. I was born in the year 1968. There are usually 365 days in any year (with the exception of leap year) so from 1 Jan till 31 Dec 1968 guess a number and if it closest to my actual birthday YOU WIN!!! Unless your guess is in your answer? You have another chance. Take care

    Myself, I was 107 days into the year of 1968
