Hello all!

As I am quickly nearing my 1000th post, I am starting to think about what I am going to give away and how I am going to pick a winner. Any ideas of what I should give away? I was thinking maybe I could give away broadstruck 2 centavo, a DDR-001 2020-P Jefferson nickel, or a PCGS PF-70 Silver Chickasaw Quarter. What sounds good? Also, how should I pick a winner? Thanks for the ideas in advance!

Everyone loves there silver, I don't have a broad struck example for my error collection yet so any of these prizes sound good and very generous.

As for the kind of contest that's half the fun is making one up:p

All three would be great prizes. Like Wrekkdd I don't have a broad strike.
In terms of contests, I feel the best are ones that can't end quickly. For instance guessing future events or weights of coins turned into bank. These give everyone a chance to enter. The skill contests can end even before most find out.
Thanks for considering to hold a contest.

How about a Double Eagle? That should get a lot of participants.

How about a bump-up of 5000 'quality' coin community forum posts--that's gotta be worth something.

I'm about at the same level of comments. We could do a joint contest and each put up something.

Just for clarification it is a quarter, not a 5 oz. round.
