OK, I know it's a bit of a roughy but it is the only spare 1913 coin I have. I thought a centenarian would be an appropriate prize.

I have quite a few 2013 coins but they are all mint/proof or nclt.
I think it will be a while before any show up in my change.

I suspect that too. But we can always be optimistic.
I am happy to wait until it happens.

Nice ideas Jeff - both the competition and the prize.
I also think it might be a while till someon claims the prize, but plenty of people will be on the lookout regardless.

Does this count?
I wasn't there.

Did anyone do a coin swap?

If I was running the competition then NCLT found in circulation would not count as I think the idea is to discover coins officially released. Then again, you could not tell if a coin was released from a mint set...
It is Jeff's competition, so he gets to decide the rules.

I didn't attend the coin swap. Unfortunately it appears that unlike the Kate and Will coin swap the Canberra one has no special packaging to signify it as a first release batch.

I will when i finally take a good photo- I met Ali in Los Angeles in 1991 and yes he is the "Man".

QuoteNCLT found in circulation would not count

Yes, only normal circulation issues count. And, no splitting up a mint set of UNC to get a picture -I will have to trust everyone on that.
If I am the first I will post a picture but I will not be eligible.
