I got my coin today! THANK you very much!

I do collect a few "World" coins, but usually only if they were minted in my birthyear. Well guess what! You happened to nail that little detail too! How did you know?!?

I'm just about to fix myself something to eat and then watch JEOPARDY! (like that's even an option,) but I will take a few shots of my NEW coin and post them here later.

This was really a nice idea! You never know what will happen on the CCF. I was lucky enough to get the last slot.

One last thought, you may want to change your username to NumisRobinHood. Not that you stole these coins from the rich, but you sure gave (at lease this one) to the POOR!

T H A N K S!

Thank you @NumisRob. This 1980 Queen Mother's 80th Birthday Crown (envelope #3) has crossed the Pond and arrived today. Sorry about the poor quality pix, but this coin is a nice addition to my rather thin world coin collection!

Glad the Queen Mother made it! I was actually quite surprised all the envelopes squeezed through the little slit thing at the post office that distinguishes a 'letter' from a 'large letter'. I notice the stamps haven't been franked - the Royal Mail seem to be getting very slapdash these days!

Let's see what was behind curtain #1!

Well, it's a lovely British Florin. This Florin features a date of 1936 and an image of King George the Fifth in the final year of his reign. Total value of the prize behind this curtain is one florin (well, of course).

Ooooooo

I was checking informed delivery and there is a foreign envelope for me.

I wonder what it is? I should know this afternoon.

As an interloper from the stamp forum, I like looking at the envelopes, too!

Looking good - six coins received and four photos posted!

It will be interesting to see if anyone had the stamps on their envelopes cancelled! I tried to use a mixture of stamps and make sure everyone got at least one Commemorative or Christmas stamp rather than just the standard Machin ones with HM The Queen!

@ Nells250:

when mine comes in and the stamps are not cancelled, I can place the envelope into an envelope and send it off to you if you like. (Of course - any personal information on the item will be cut away though)
