It is time for the 2021 Christmas Prize Draw entries. Last year there were over 90 entrants. I believe, you can see last years Christmas Prize Draw topic here, to have an idea as to some of the prizes. This year we are keeping the same 1oz minimum silver entry.

Anyone wanting to be entered please list your interest below, before the 21st November 2021 (UK time) ONLY PEOPLE WHO DONATE A PRIZE WILL BE ENTERED INTO THE DRAW.

Everyone who enters the draws will receive a prize. And everyone who enters will need to donate a prize as per the conditions at the bottom of this post. 

Last year, each day running up to Christmas, draws were released in batches and each prize that was donated was matched up to a winner. The draw(s) itself/themselves will start in the last week of November, to accommodate those who enter from abroad. All prizes will be assigned randomly to the winners, either by using a random number generator or using a spreadsheet program to randomly match up prizes to winners.

If you already know what the prize is that you will be entering into the draw, please feel free to post the prize below. This will help to encourage more members to join the Christmas Prize Draws and to donate good prizes   If you are unsure of the prize you will be entering but know that you would like to enter you can still state your interest in joining below, to be included in the draws, and add your prize details later.

 
Conditions of entry:

Minimum prize value of 1oz of silver or £25 GBP / $30 USD / applicable currency equivalent cash value of an alternative prize.

Members entering must hold Premium Membership. As well as Premium Membership helping to support TSF to grow, choosing to only allow Premium Members to enter also means that there is less risk of an entrant defaulting on sending their prize. Any members who enter but does not follow through on their entry risk their account status. We do not anticipate that there will be any issues this year  Feel free to purchase Premium Membership to then enter the draw below. 

As TSF is a worldwide forum, any member who enters does so under the condition that they agree to post the prize worldwide to the winner and to cover the cost of standard world-wide shipping. It is the receivers responsibility to pay any applicable taxes and import duties etc that may be imposed by customs when receiving an international parcel.

Entry is available to any Premium Member in any country worldwide. 

Yes it’s definitely both beautiful and chunky..!
😊

Received another beauty in a rare high grade. 

Welcome to the forum!

For the side by side comparisons, here are the all new 2021 Morgans and Peace Dollars next to their 1921 counterparts. My 1921 dollars may not be the best of shape, but it serves it's purpose for a general comparison. Please enjoy!

In my experience, most collectors of slabbed coins don't care about the boxes or COAs.  I even helped a forum member in the UK buy a slabbed coin here in the US, and he had me toss the box and COA, and just ship the slab.  It's understandable, as it can amount to a lot of extra storage.
I am an exception though...I have a strong preference to keep the box, COA, and capsule with my slabbed coins, and I'm definitely willing to pay more for an NGC slab that comes with all of this intact.

Coins in original packaging sell quicker and for more money than just the coin. Numismatically it shouldn't make any difference, the coin is what is being purchased not the material surrounding it. The packaging, though does add a degree of authenticity and can look pretty.
As for slabbed coins - the slab removes the need for extra authenticity so shouldn't make too much of a difference. In some circumstances a slabbed coin will sell for more than an original boxed one.... In my opinion certificates are pretty much meaningless and don't come into play but i'm sure some people would choose a coin being sold with a cert over one that didn't have one.

When collecting proof coins I noticed a few in slabs. NGC. They have a Authenticator number, but there is no box or certificate that came from London mint with coin. 
 
Is this important in price from a numismatic point? 

They look great as always!  Same as last year please. 

Same 5oz round as last year please!
