I have a proof 1990 Eisenhower Commemorative Silver Dollar to give away. It contains 0.7734 ounce of pure silver and looks nice to boot. There were over a million proof Ike Commems minted so these have become something of a bullion coin. But hey, it is a nice looking way to acquire some silver!

The obverse shows a dual profile with President Eisenhower facing right on top of General Eisenhower facing left. The reverse shows the Eisenhower home.

To enter this contest please post once to this thread. A winner will be selected at random from everybody who has posted by 8/15 at midnight Pacific Time.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And the winner is ajia! Congrats ajia, Please IM me your address and the Ike will go out Monday morning.

I wrote down the names of all entrants including the two who posted new threads rather than in this post. I cut them into equal size slips of paper, folded them and put them in my Australian hat and tossed them around. My daughter, who didn't enter, closed her eyes and picked out one slip. Photo of hat below. Cheesy

I now have a complete set of proof and mint state commemorative dollars in Dansco albums and was really disappointed to find out that they only contain 0.7734 ounces of silver each. Still, it is a cool set to have.  Cool

Hmmmmm....look at all those emoticons!   Grin

Even a Spell checker!

But based on other threads at other sites, maybe a CAPS CHECKER should also be included!   Cheesy

Well Carl, I think this might be a nice break from CU and the OFR

and thanks for letting me come in and play

I am in the giveaway, and should I win I want it to be a donation to what I will be starting here - A xmas YN giveaway, just like I did back a couple of years ago from the CU, which I will do again over there as well, only if folks who donate let me know where this message came from.

I'm not starting this event until last week in October, so stay tuned...I will be looking for donations to give to the kids only.

y'all have a great day

now I have to figure out how to upload a pic of me..
