Hello members,
It has been absolutely pleasurable learning about coins here in CCF for the past few months.
Couple of the reasons that I stopped the hobby about 20 years ago were that I could not share my experiences with anyone at the time and that I felt I couldn't get any unbiased opinions about coins. But I always remembered that first shiny
Morgan dollar purchased for six dollars when pinball machines were a dime to play.
Ever since I joined CCF, I learned and benefited so much. I am truly appreciative of all members who shared their knowledge and opinions,
and to show my appreciation, I am holding a contest.
A simple contest to guess the weight of a silver plated tray filled with circulated silver coins. I thought about coming up with some fancy contest, but I think this will be fun for everyone who can do some math and come up with educated guesses. I will tell you about coins that are in the tray.
PRIZE:
1 st closest - CCF Copper Token (see pic below)
2nd closest - VF+ Morgan or XF+
Peace dollar (you choose which one)
3 rd closest -
