I just couldn't wait to host my first giveaway contest here. I just love all the folks I am getting to know through this forum. The moderators are so patient and awesome, and it makes us new members feel comfortable and welcome. Nobody cuts anyone down, and nobody tries to intimidate others. It really does feel like a family to me. Thanks to everyone, new members and verterans alike.
So I can't help myself, I will always be looking for an excuse to do a giveaway on CCF.
This is officially my 100th post, and any member with a minimum of 50 quality posts can participate. The winner gets to choose one coin from a list of various dates of red BU Lincolns (1940's, 1950's, and 1960's).
I hope I didn't make this puzzle too easy; now we will find out.
Here goes:I have singled out 4 coins from my collection. I have never posted anything about these 4 coins on this forum. I am going to give you 5 clues about these 4 coins. Then you must answer 1 question. The first to answer correctly is the winner.
Of the 4 coins, there is a brockage error, a proof, a
DDO, & an NGC slab. between them, there are 4 denominations: 5c, 10c, 25c, 50c. And there are 4 unique dates: 1942, 1945, 1953, 1956.
All items listed above are in no relative order.
We are ignoring the mint marks for this game.
CLUES:1.) The proof coin is a dime.
2.) The coin dated 1953 has twice the denominational value of the NGC coin.
3.) The slabbed coin is a 1956.
4.) The coin from 1956 is half the denominational value of the coin with the brockage error.
5.) The four coins are: the 1942, the brockage, the quarter, and the nickel.
The Million Dollar Question:What is the value of the coin dated 1945?Winner gets a red BU Lincoln! Have fun!
