The prize will be a birth year mint or proof set. IF I have that year.
Or a 1992 SILVER proof set.

I work in a plastics factory (custom extrusion) The contest will be if you can tell me what the following stand for.

H.I.P.S.

H.D.P.E.

P.V.C. (this one has been in a few resent posts. And although it may be bad for coins. It's not completely bad stuff.)image

Another prize I will offer is a tube bank. I have one for quarters that holds up to $180.00 worth. Takes a while to fill.

    I don't know if you edited after I first looked or I didn't read it correctly (the YN part). image If my answers are correct give it to a YN of your choice or have a drawing.

    Not a newbie but how about PET

    Polyethyleneteraphthalate


    I'd be interested in these types of things in the form of a fiber analysis, rather than making them.

    I did add 1 year or less to new collector.
    But if you fairly new I wont hold it to the 1 year max.

    And I call anyone younger than me a kid. Thus the 42 or less, of course thats a jokeimage


    I will put all respondents in a drawing, (new or yns)

    This is to clarify. My first giveawayimage

    This is my first giveaway.
    sorry I didn't have every thing all set to begin with. like an end time for instance.

    Any respondent with 100% on the questions, and all YNs go into a drawing. I will pm winners for birthdates or if they would prefer a bank.

    I have to work this weekend. So I'm going to let the contest go untill Tuesday Morning.

    I want the YNs and newbies to know about it so please sent it back to the top for me if it drops back to far.

    Thanks and have fun.
