These coins were selected as the best specimens from a cash register in Poland. Therefore, they are not uncirculated. That's precisely why they're are free, though!  Lot 1: each coin a different type. As good as I was able to find for each type. Includes a Canadian token dated 2000*.  Lot 2: each coin a different date. Anything that looked better than usual for the date in question. Includes an average circulated 1 zloty dated 1993. Even though at the time it was a low mintage year, these still come up regularly.  * the Canadian token was not in the cash register in question. But I don't know what to do with it, so I added it to the smaller lot. How to enter: write below which lot you'd like to receive (one, not both). The winners will be drawn in 3 days time from now. The coins will be sent using normal unregistered mail. *** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. *** |

Very nice. The Canadian medal is from a Millennium medal/stamp set. I like lot #2.

Thanks for the giveaway.
I'd like lot #1 just if I ever decide to start a Poland type set.

I would be interested in number 1, the less of the two.
I dated a Polish Catholic for a few months back in university. I got to go to Mass in the only Polish Catholic Church in Atlantic Canada.

Once, when returning from a local coin shop, I managed to get a 50 groszy coin (dated 1995, I think) in change in a bus. No Canadian tokens though!
I'd like lot 1 if I have to choose one... a Polish type set is a nice idea (I've lately been unexpectedly interested in Polish coins).

I would take either one for my wife's foreign (meaning not USA) collection... Not sure if you're willing to send them overseas...
I guess lot 1 is more popular, so I will ask for lot 2.

I would like to be entered to receive Lot 2.
I was born in Chicago and that city observes Casimir Pulaski day on the first Monday of every March. Schools, libraries, city offices and banks are all closed on that day to honor the Casimir Pulaski -- the Father of the American Cavalry.
Thanks for the contest.

Lot #1 is my choice if I'm drawn.
I don't have any Poland coins in my world coin book and I like the look of that Canadian piece too.

Lot #2 please. Great giveaway - my wife is Polish and she had a few older silver Polish coins in her collection from when she came over. Just picked up some 2 sets of some nice older bills (1982) today at a coin show -didn't cost a lot and I figure it's a great way to keep our kids connected to their Polish roots.
