Default Here The Idea.. PICK YOUR DATE

Pick your favorite date and hope you win the coin by date. You have to pick the date and mint if any; which there is only one of each type per Date and mint.

1860, thru 1899, 1910 1911, 1912, 1913, 1914, 1915, ect.


except there will be 100 or more to choise from. many will win -few wont and a few will win couple special dates. I still have to get permission and I need time to put it all together. But this is the over all Idea. Pick a date and that date is yours only no one can pick that date once it is picked it is done. after everyone has picked all the dates available I will update on the winning dates. Carfull -the coins range from one cents to one dollar coins. Older date wont mean an automactice better coin. So pick your luckly date... I welcome any tweaks
