Here we go! Five entries this year. The link below pulls up the spreadsheet with the picks. For fun, I bolded the few consensus selections.

Thanks, Lion!

I mentioned in the rules, that if I won, everyone could either send me the prize they chose, or they can give a prize to a Young Numismatist out there somewhere. After all, recruiting new folks into the hobby just means we will have someone to sell to later on.

I'll message all the entrants with my address, and you all can do as you like. I enjoyed the game. It gave me a reason to pay attention to the myriad of games that seem to run together.

Best wishes to all!

Specksnyder, sorry there's been no update on your prize. I had planned on giving something nice to my nephew (9 years old) when they came to visit, and was gonna post a pic on here. Every time they plan to come for a weekend, either their weather or mine won't allow. I'm just going to go ahead and send you something this week. Terribly sorry for the delay. I'll give the little turd something anyway!

No worries, Jay. Sorry you haven't gotten to see your nephew in a while. You have to get him hooked somehow! :)
