I'll predict the cost of a roll of 2005 Oregon quarters mintmark D (UNC of course) will rise the most.
Can I find a "grey sheet" on the internet?

Well I really don't know much about this stuff, but will enter just for laughs.....

I'll pick my most recent addition
1880-0 Morgan dollar in MS64.....as I said I really don't know much, so I doubt I have a chance.

Winner or not, seeing that list already makes me happy! That $120 is about three times what I paid for my CC about four years ago or so.

ND, Your rules say....
"The person who chooses the coin that rises the most (percentage) will win a really "cool" prize".
Based on those rules, volfan came in at is 2.275% ($4400.00 to $4500.00), Catman at 5.555% ($4.50 to $4.75) and The_Cave_Troll blew everyone away with a 50% increase!($18.00 to $27.00)Everyone else was static. I think those, like myself who chose traditional high ticket coins blew it!( I then thought maybe this was why you threw in the percentage qualifyer, to make it tougher) After I posted and saw others who "got it", I knew I blew it!

So little movement on so many issues & guesses, but I suspect that is fairly normal over a short period.

Congradulations to Volfan for guessing the highest amount of increase.
Congradulations to Cave troll for guessing the highest Percentage amount of increase.
Congradulations to Catman for guessing a coin that did increase

At least no one guess a coin that went backward in price

I just received multiple emails about this. The original numbers are messed up some how, but I will honor my mistake.

Catman-Cavetroll-volfan are all declared winners.

All will receive the 1933 Saint "copy". Please email me your names and addresses.

Sorry about that folks.

Just so everyone knows, I listed the 2002-P Tenn roll price. The "D" roll has increased from $27 to $28

I blame this mistake on the move My mind is operating almost as well as my internet.

No problem, ND- sounds like you've had a stressful month or so! Thanks for running the contest- I thought it was quite innovative and informative. I tried to pick a lower dollar-value coin, hoping for a higher % increase, but apparently I didn't go low enough!

Regards,
~neuron
