CONTEST ... in honor of Larry
I was Larry Calder's swap partner last year. The gift he sent me really
moved me. Even though we were in the $10 price range group, he managed to find me a coin that was beautiful and uniqe, a lovely PCGS slabbed Kennedy half with a cameo made by toning. One of a kind. I could tell he was very thoughtful about his gift and that it truly came from his heart. We communicated a bit over the past year, last of all on the day before he went into the hospital. His passing bothered me a lot, and I've been thinking about how to honor him. I know he loved this group, and I figure he'd appreciate knowing that someone ran a contest in his honor. And because it was Larry, I decided that the only possible prize would be an Ira coin. To that end I've procured a 1949-s Lincoln cent graded MS66 and selected as PQ by THE MAN, Ira himself. So here it is, a contest in honor of Larry. It's simple to enter. Reply to this posting, or send me an e-mail with CONTEST as the first word in the subject line. Before I leave for the XMAS holidays I'll have my kids pull three names from the hat. Those I will post here. Then on XMAS eve I'll have my nieces pull out one who will be 'the winner.' The other two will receive some lame consolation prize, like a circulated clad half or worn IHC or something. Image of the Ira coin first prize is here for now: http://tinyurl.com/ypcp I may not be able to post the winner on XMAS eve because I won't have internet access (though I'll try to find some), but will do so when I return before the New Year. So here we go, and good luck! --Keith |
