I did remove number 8 as the french forum does know about the previous winning coins Id say that if they send you a picture about a winning coin you just reply to them to enter another one and tell them why.

Thank you so much!

You have just doubled your classy contest. Well done guys, nice team work and thank for your efforts to the website. And I'm really pleased it's back and I'm liking the logo.

Come on, more entries!  

If you double it to two photos per nation, I'll send 'em in.

In a few days I'll be getting a real nice coin in a mint set that might be a winner.

I'm easily up for two's up

Yeah! I would add more if I could.

In that case, since you three want it and more people probably do, two per region it is!

We need like buttons on here ! I will take some pics today !

The power of the people.

That is great. I was having a hard time picking which coin to enter. I will get them into you soon.

I've took pics but I'm not exactly sure what to enter

I have a poser for you sending via PM

Ha! You guys are great.

I have taken more pics but I have more coins coming which I would like to consider before entering !

I've been thinking why don't we have a Most Popular Note Contest? There seems to be plenty of support for a Numista-like website for notes which means there must be plenty of people with them. And from the people that have them there have got to be some people who want to show them off. But wait there's more! If it is deemed too off topic for this great coin website we could put it on the bill/note website that is supposedly going to be born in the near-ish future. Now how does this idea sound?

Sorry, but I would make a Most Popular Stamp Contest (MPSC) first.

If you want that, then I could consider it. Perhaps in a year or so when we get our stamp site sorted out. But no MPNC until MPSC, and not now, and not on Numista.

At least I've got some good stamps.

Quote: Dr. MathAt least I've got some good stamps.

Let's see 'em.

I got a few that are worth quite a few good bucks, since I know what stamps to look out for. Here are some of my stamps (without the preforations):




Guess which one is the most expensive.

Eh maybe not that good. I'll get back to you in a few months.

Bump.

In this round will you be posting images at actual size submitted? Could not see details of some coins in MPCC 1 because the images were small....

Quote: @josephjkIn this round will you be posting images at actual size submitted? Could not see details of some coins in MPCC 1 because the images were small....

The images will be larger, but not as large as submitted.

Did you get the scans I sent through?

Quote: neilithicDid you get the scans I sent through?

Yes I did!

I've entered this time - this seems to be one of the only good topics left.

So whats the deadline for entering coins now? Is it the 21st?
Can´t wait for the competition  
Cheers, Paul

When's it going to start? I can't wait any longer  

I've not had enough time to enter. I've been ill... .

It will begin when everything is put together.

I misunderstood, I thought the 21st was the date at which the contest began by people entering coins, not the deadline at which they couldn't be entered.

Quote: pnightingaleI misunderstood, I thought the 21st was the date at which the contest began by people entering coins, not the deadline at which they couldn't be entered.

Well you can still enter today.

nope, in my time zone it's already the 22nd and my time zone is the only one that matters.....no more entries!! LOL

Quote: neilithicnope, in my time zone it's already the 22nd and my time zone is the only one that matters.....no more entries!! LOL

Exactly. Everyone should have had it done in January, like me!

GET ON WITH IT!

MPCC II begins tomorrow...

Quote: dptashnyMPCC II begins tomorrow...

Quote: dptashnyMPCC II begins tomorrow...

Yes.

I look forward very much so to waking up on a morning and making my votes again ! :D

Quote: Mark240590I wish I stuck in at French at school saying that when I hit year 9 and took my options I dropped it like a rock !

I think i have missed chance to win. Who was the winner and when this contest will start yet again? Please share the information. Thanks.
