Woooooooooooooooooooooooo - I won!

Left it late but it worked out in the end.

I knew I'd lowballed here but was trying to be tactical.

Congrats on an excellent thread Jango, cant wait to defend my crown in Season 2
Rest in Peace

It most likely won't be immediately after this; was thinking it could be more of an "every couple months or so" kind of thing.

I enjoyed it Jango.

I too think you should wait a bit before the next one, maybe run it once a quarter.

The scoring was fine, I think maybe the people who submit coins could add a paragraph or two telling us about the coin and the issuer, it might add interest.

I know it is more work for you or whoever is the moderator, but I agree with bobbyhelmet. More information could generate new blood to the dark side.

Also, if you want to participate instead of always running the contest, maybe we could run this like the Smackdowns in that the winner is moderator of the next Guess the Price. But that is only if you wish to participate. Otherwise, you did a good job.

I was actually considering adding a rule like that to the game, or have coin submitters send me a paragraph on info about the ruler, the coin itself etc that I would post when their coin came up, but for some reason I never implemented that

I'm really glad though I gave this under-collected (IMO) area of coin collecting a little more exposure.

Maybe eventually it can turn into that, but for now I don't mind running the show.
