 Yay 500 posts  Anyway here's the competition: You have to guess my favourite USA Commemorative Dollar and my favourite Australian $5 coin. So theres something here for the US guys and Australian guys! And hopefully you others from around the world can have a go too. If no one has the answers after 3 days I will put up a clue, if no one has the answers another 3 days later I will put up another clue, then it will become fairly obvious... One Post per day, per person please  OH YES the prizes  A 2007 Australian APEC $1, An Australian UN Anniversey 20c, a 1951D Lincoln Wheat cent, a 1944 Australian Sixpence (Stupid me I mean threepence  ) Image:  OH if anyone gets ONE right then I will mention who got it, but not which one it was, so they know they're on the right track (you will too) UPDATE - 1st Clue The US Dollar relates to my hobby other than coin collecting which can be found if you click on my name. The Australian $5 commemorates a person. The winner is... ARTHRENE  he seems to be very good at competitions. The prizes are coming your way, I might take the wheaty out and put something else in it's place, since you have a few and you traded me this one  Edited by Spedward 06/06/2008 12:34 am

Nope nothing yet, I don't mind that antarctic territory one, though, but that's not it.

 Image is small but this is a 1989 Statue of Freedom dollar coin  Spedward, Really, thanks a lot for this contest. I don't have money to go and splurge on bullion. To be honest until now, I have never really looked at the commemorative section of Red Book. The U.S. mint has made some very attractive coins in this section! I wish our circulating issues could look like some of these. If Red Book prices are accurate (which they're probably not due to the rising price of bullion) I may be able to afford some of the silver coins. -Arthrene
