'bout time you showed up Moe!
Nice haiku, hidden as it was.

ThisIsFun wants fun?
OK. Let's shell it out, and
Write poetic verse.

VAM, "V" and Very
Fine, the terms do us confuse.
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. 'tis clear
I shall not win. Just want to
Keep your game alive.

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

ThisIsFun, great game.
A wonderful idea
Which one will you pick?

Coin haiku's are fun.
There are some great ones in here
Which gets a dollar?

Nineteen Sixteen-D
I must acquire one soon
To finish a set!

Nineteen Sixteen-D
'09 S VDB cent
A pair of rare coins

Coin toss, heads or tails
A winner it shall decide
A loser as well

Albums and folders
With so many empty holes
Soon they will be full

I look outside at
2ft of snow on the ground.
Need a shovel now

No coins in the mail
It makes a sad day for me
Hope for tomorrow

All these people. Coin
Community Family,
the best forum ever!

Ill take a shot at
a 3 word haiku poem
how hard can it be?

Everybody
Antiquarianism
Extraordinary

Harder than I thought.
The best I have is not good
Funny in a way

Thats all I have now.
Must sleep to work for more coins
stuck in haiku mode
