Crime of 1873, The Comstock Connection, A Tale of Mines, Trade and Morgan Dollars

 

I just want to take a moment and thank NGC for their great numismatic trivia questions that they post almost every week. I have been fortunate enough to win or be the runner up a few times in the past. This past week I was selected as the winner and won this very cool book "Crime of 1873, The Comstock Connection by Robert R Van Ryzin. This is by far the coolest thing that I have won. I also want to thank NGC for doing a great job wrapping it since the postal employee left it on my door step today and it was pouring down rain. Keep up the good work NGC and I can't wait for the next trivia question. As always, thanks for looking and Happy Collecting

That's one cool book that I'd like to add to my library, however unlike you I'll have to go out and buy it. Congratulations!

Sure looks like a COOL READER!!!

 

Congrats

 

BTW--- If any members have a numismatic book or two that they are finished with let me know and I will trade coins from my ( sell or trade ) sets for them.

Cool. I won a few weeks ago (a book) and got the NGC storage box instead... guess they ran out of books.

Kenneth, "Well Shucks". They could have put a coin or two in there so you wouldn't be getting just a empty box!!!

I too have been blessed with books from NGC, in fact three times!! The one I enjoyed the most is The King of Eagles by Dean Albanese and a VERY close second was Carson City Morgans by Adam Crum, Selby Ungar and Jeff Oxman. I also have a couple of coin boxes (full of Kennedys) that I won as runner up.

 

THANK YOU NGC, YOU ROCK!!!

Yea, no kidding. I finally win one and didnt get the correct prize. Ive been the runner up several times and recieved the boxes (which Im not complaining because I need them). I did win one PNG trivia and got alot of nice things (1 graded bill, nice zippered money bag and a free submission coupon). Gotta love free stuff!

Trivia Question for Posters:

 

Why was the Coinage Act February 12, 1873 sometimes called the "Crime of 1873?"

Congratulations on your win. NGC has had some great prizes for the Numismatic Trivia Quiz. I won a few months ago and really enjoyed the book that they sent me.
