Over the last (almost 5 years) that I've been on CC, I've learned a lot from you guys/gals. You all have helped me go from newbie to.... I actually know something now about coins, errors/varieties, numismatics. So, to show a bit of appreciation, I 'd like to do a contest. Last weekend some friends & I went to the casinos to watch SNF, have some drinks & gamble a little. We sat down on a row of $1.25 bet per hand Progressive Double Double Video Poker machines. Sadly, I did not win the Royal Flush but I did manage to win the runner-up prize.... AAAA w/ 2,3 or 4 kicker, which automatically meant, drinks were on me. Those that aren't Problem Gamblers (like myself) or may not know about video poker, 4 Aces w/ a 2,3,4 kicker pays a minimum of $500.00 & incrementally increases higher & higher ($500.01, $500.02, etc.) til some wins it again. Eligibility Prerequisites: Must have 50 posts & be located in the USA. Contest starts as soon as I hit *Post New Topic* & will run for 1 week (Nov 20th til Nov. 27th 1PM'ish Pacific). 1 guess per member per day. Contest: (Simply tell me how much the jackpot was worth). Whoever guesses the closest will win the 2019 W Lowell Quarter pictured below. In the event someone guesses the exact amount before Nov 27th, the contest will be over at that point.... good luck!

Quote: ratman4762,you have a milestone just around the corner...contest time? Last time I ran a contest, I ran 2 at the same time. One had NO entrants and the other had very few. I ended up giving away both prizes in the same contest. (2nd contest was only for members who participated in the unofficial "official" nickel roll searchers forum....had no takers)
