In Honor of the 100 anniversary of the
Lincoln Cent, My contest will be a number guessing game. Very simple really, just guess how many Lincoln cents I have collected/hoarded as of today's date. Just a few rules:
#1 One guess per member who has at least 50 posts.So make it a good one.
#2 Your guess cannot be the same as another members guess.
#3 Contest will run until midnight forum time Saturday 19 Dec 2009
OR as soon as 100 guesses are made,
OR some one guesses correctly, which ever comes first.
#4 Closest guess wins even if you go over
OK, here is what the prize is
1 roll each P&D of the LP1 & LP2 2009 Lincoln cents (sorry, I couldn't get my grubby hands on the other two)
A 1909
Wheat centAnd just because it is my contest and I can give away what ever I want, I am going to throw in a Waffled blank Quarter Planchet.
Here are some hints
I have purchased 1550 wheat cents and received 16 as gifts along with those purchases from forum members.
I purchased 56 at a flea market this summer.
That gives you a baseline to start guessing so lets get to it.
