Hey everyone, I thought that a great way to start the summer would be to give back to all my friends at CCF! To do this, I will be running a simple, but fun contest!

The rules:
-Must have a US address
-Must have at least 50 posts

The contest:

To win the prize, you must guess the face value of the coins shown in this picture...



CC2012's-Summer-Contest!


The Prize:

The first person to guess the face value of the coins in the picture will win a 2016-D Lincoln in a PCGS sample slab. If no one has guessed the correct amount by this time next week, the closest guess without going over will win. This is what the prize looks like...

CC2012's-Summer-Contest!



Good luck and happy summer everyone!

I probably should have mentioned that...

Only one guess per person. Montcollector, since you had a low guess, feel free to post a second guess.

$32.20... Thanks for the contest.

I have two questions: Do you currently know the answer to this contest? What is the value of the prize coin, the shield cent sample? I've never seen it before. Please let me know. Thanks.

It's a penny from the US. After 2010 the design changed to that shield.

I won't be entering the contest but thanks for hosting it!
