in World & Ancient Coins Forum
in honor of the (not so) grand occasion of my 1000th post, I will have my first giveaway here on my "home" forum.

All you have to do is post a scan of your favorite personal coin; it may not be the most valuable or rare, but maybe simply the one that always brings a smile to your face!

I don't know what the prize is yet, but i'll certainly give it some thought. Winner will be drawn by my 18 month old daughter Matia, on Friday morning.

thanks for making this the most fun, informative and friendly coin forum on the 'net!

good luck


Doug


Don (Ajaan), congrats! thanks to all of your for showing your beautiful cons and participating! i'll get the prize right out to Don!

    plus a few others.. the first one is a bad link, but I can't seem to delete it. If you look at them you might see the only medal I know of with a placenta on it imageimageimage

  • TwoKopeikiTwoKopeiki Posts: 9,854 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Cathy, that medal really draws your attention and makes you pause. Very cool.
