Bar Keep - Serve it up! Don't skimp, dear friend, for Lubricated do I bid to Face the ebay fray. But, I pause. And add Up the purchases thus made. Oops. Hit the "Watch" key! TIF.

I sure am enjoying this, hope you are too :)
Reminder-- I didn't make a ton of rules for this giveaway but one that I will stick to is the requirement of having at least 50 posts to your credit-- however, your number of posts can be as low as 1 if you have the "Supporter" tag under your name... Becoming a CCF supporter takes as little as a one-time $5 donation. Just click the Supporter tag under any Supporter's name to be taken to the donation page.
If you don't have the required number of posts or the Supporter tag you can certainly post haikus or whatever else you want in this thread but you won't be eligible for either prize.
Entrants who are Supporters will have five entries into the raffle; those without will have one entry. You can post as many haikus as you like in your attempt to win the Best Haiku prize but posting more haikus does not gain you more raffle entries. You will have either one or five raffle entries depending on your Supporter status.
In answer to someone's question-- it is possible to win both the raffle and Best Haiku. I plan to pick the Best Haiku first and then do the random drawing (well, virtual drawing). In the event that one person wins both I'll pick a runner-up Best Haiku and give that person something too :)

Wow... It has proven quite the challenge to try to find one word with 5-7-5 syllable's.. Especially to do with coins... But I love a challenge, lol. Here's the best I can come up with for one worders, for now. (I guess "revolutionary war" is consitered one word from all the syllable sites? Huh... But good for me, lol).. Maybe if they found some new type of colonial rebel coin  ... Or something... Like I said not the best but darn hard to find one that works! Unidentified Revolutionary war Denomination
