I probably won't do one as often as others, my next will be at 5000 and every 2500 thereafter.
I'll keep this one simple, just give me the count of wheats in the pile, without going over the count. Whoever guesses closest, without going over, wins. If someone guesses the exact number, I will end the giveaway as soon as I notice, otherwise I will let it run for a week, we'll call it 6:00 PM eastern time, 12/13/21. You must have at least 50 posts at the time of your guess, only one guess per person, otherwise, no one is exempt from playing, as long as I can mail by first class USPS to your location.

The following will be the mishmash prize:
Five misc. international WWII bank notes.
1957 U.S. one dollar bill silver certificate.
1944 D Lincoln Cent cc's 019 RPM.
1935 P full date Buffalo nickel.
1945 S Lincoln Cent (very nice woody).
1957 D heavily toned BU Franklin half dollar.
1916 D Barber quarter.
1942 P AU? Mercury dime.
1960 Canadian quarter.
1945 P War Nickel.

Here are the wheats to guess the count, these are not included in the prize, too heavy.


Here are two pics of the prize. Hope you enjoy!

Looks great - 208 coins.

If I win post the prize to 2nd contestant, it would cost a bomb to send that to NZ - although I would love that Barber quarter and Frankie!
