With the lineup you posted, this should be a piece of cake. Absolutely no competition there ;):hi:
Don't talk about Shane like that! He'll get a complex!! lol

 

I am going to use the paper and chalk method.....just lay the slab under a piece of paper and rub chalk over the top....no way anyone is going to beat my images with this tried and true method :banana:

Make sure you use digital chalk so you can upload the images.

Sign me up also. Would like to try it. My buddy Bob will pummel me though.

 

You're sweet Dean, but did you take a look at the names on the list? These guys get paid to do this.

Received afternoon of Nov 22, 2010, and will mail out to the next victim today, Nov 23.

 

The coin is substantially nicer in-hand than anticipated, and I now agree with Coindude's previous comments in another thread that it is undergraded in an old ANACS holder.

lol, no that's not the prize. Something equally amazing I'm sure!! Or not!! Anyhow, depending on who wins I'll try to find something that fits. If not, you'll get something I like and maybe that will get you interested!!

Welcome and what a beautiful Buffalo. I'm going to go out on a limb and guess it is MS64.

 

You might get more of a response if you would post this in it's own thread, either here or the US Coin forum. There is a good chance your first post would get lost in this thread.

Welcome, and I agree with Bob, you need to start your own thread to introduce yourself so everyone gets a chance to say hi!!

 

Nice colors and nice pictures. Too late for this contest, but maybe the next!

Hey, I know you! Welcome, crazyhounddog. Show us some more of your pretty Indian Head nickels.

Lance.

 

I didn't know that was Joe. He's got enough Buffs for his own forum. :cloud9:

Updated to show where the coin is headed. Currently on it's way to Shane. So far the results have been very interesting!!

 

Also added two contestants, Buffalo Head and myself. Although, I'm in it just for fun, as I've seen the results it wouldn't be fair for me to actually compete, although, I don't think I could actually compete with the bunch we have!!

 

Also, removed one name unfortunately.

 

All the best guys!!
