Recap #2: There are six (6) prizes, so the top six win the prizes. Number One picks his prize; then Number Two picks her prize; etc.

The revised formula for choosing the winners was posted on 12 February 2017 @ 14:36 EST (-5 UTC), which stated that the ranking would be based on the simple average of each participants guesses.




The prizes were posted on 09 February 2017 @ 08:58 EST (-5 UTC). The remaining prizes are listed below.

2014-D Native American dollar, Enhanced Uncirculated - From the 2014 Coin & Currency Set, graded SP-69 by NGC.

One Lincoln Wheat cent from each of the coin's first 25 years (1909-1933) - As you might expect, most of the pennies will be from the Philadelphia Mint, but there will be a few from the Denver and San Francisco Mints. The condition (grade) of the cents ranges from G-4 to F-12.

Fifteen (15) 2017-D Native American dollars - Business strike, never circulated but purchased as a bag of 100 coins from the U.S. Mint, so the coins have the usual bag marks and such, i.e., they're likely to all be at least MS-63, and mostly MS-65, but unlikely to be MS-69 or MS-70.




The Top Six participants are listed here, along with the prize they have chosen (if they have done so).

1. spruett001 --> 1946-S Lincoln Wheat cent, MS-65-RD

2. Buddy --> 1947 Lincoln Wheat cent, MS-64-RD

3. KenKat --> 2016 Coin & Currency Set

4. coinlover1899

5. T-BOP

6. flag4

Oh, by the way, THANK YOU (brave enough to do it in 'yelling' format ) for this incredible supporter only contest! On behalf of all the members who played, and myself, I can tell you it was an excellent contest!

There are some occasions when yelling is quite appropriate--like this one!

Not that I'm biased or anything...

T-BOP gets to pick from these two remaining prizes, OR I have some more 2014-D Native American dollars, SP-69 by NGC, and some more 2016 Coin & Currency Sets, if either T-BOP or flag4 would like one of those items instead of the two prizes listed below.

One Lincoln Wheat cent from each of the coin's first 25 years (1909-1933) - As you might expect, most of the pennies will be from the Philadelphia Mint, but there will be a few from the Denver and San Francisco Mints. The condition (grade) of the cents ranges from G-4 to F-12.

Prizes for flag4 to choose from:

2014-D Native American dollar, Enhanced Uncirculated - From the 2014 Coin & Currency Set, graded SP-69 by NGC.

2016 Currency & Coin Set - Includes the 2016-S Enhanced Uncirculated Native American dollar and a "$1 note containing a low serial number from one of the 12 Federal Reserve Banks". The Coin & Currency Set is still available from the U.S. Mint for $14.95 + shipping (about $5), but you get it for free since this is a prize.

flag4 - I tried to send you an email about your prize, but I got this message:

DD27's-500th-Post-Contest!

A lot of members do not realize they have their settings set to 'no email' - easy to fix though, if you want.

Edit: Wait, I'm remembering more...something about the number 15 and...lost it.

Huh . . what!

Wow, sorry guys for the delay . .

Thank you dd27 . . I would be honored to receive the 15 Native America dollars. I collect small dollars actually, and large ones too for that matter.

I will go and fix my email settings now. had no idea it wasn't working.

I don't have a lot of wheaties and to get a red one is very nice.

Thank you for the prize and for the contest.
