Image relocated to top post.

Greetings Dearborn,

I have been having the hardest time trying to upload the pictures of these coins, but by golly I think I will soon be successful.

In the meantime I'd like to change the way the prizes will be distributed; I would like to have the 4 prizes listed without placement and allow the 1st place winner choose from among the 4 prizes and then the 2nd place & so on. The reason for this change is to perhaps garner more participants. 1st I will ask the current 4 participants if they will agree to this.....be back shortly
