Wow, I can't believe that I won and only off by 60 cents.

Thank you so much for the fun contest.

The 1914-D is one of five Lincoln Wheat cents that I complete my Lincoln Wheat set.

Since the coin needs to go to my mom's place in the US first and she will forward it over to me in the UK, it going to be a while before I see the coin in person.

Wow I am surprised I was only off by $10. I am normally pretty good at these types of games, I used to win a lot of them as a kid. Congrats Kena.
