I have 830 posts! Woo-hoo! and a bunch of Buffalo nickels. So, here's a contest for the Newbies. I don't have much stuff to give away right now, but it feels like my turn to give back to the community. All there is to do is a little guessing game. Back in October of 2007, I picked up a small batch of about $12 in cents from my bank. These rolls brought me 3 steel cents...and 3 Indian heads. Your job is to guess what the dates of the 3 Indians were. Rules:1. Must be a new collector of U.S. coins, starting out in the past year. (I'll take your word for it  ) or1. Must know a new collector, and will pledge to give the winnings to said new collector. 2. Must be a resident of US or Canada (due to shipping costs ) 3. Only one guess per day; day resets at midnight forum time. Winnings:Starter set of Buffalo nickels, containing one of each of the Philadelphia-mint coins from 1913 t1 to 1929, and 1925-S and 1928-S. Most of these coins have been acid-dated.(I know, not much : / But it's all I have to give at the moment.) I'll update somehow to give hints as to which dates have been correctly guessed. Not sure how I'll do this yet. Finally, I might throw in some extra coins for the winner  Good luck!
