First contest of 2009 - Eyeball finds!
Since the warmer climates have a definite advantage for regular MD-ing, this contest will be very fair. Whoever finds the most eyeball finds between January 1st and January 31st, 2009, will win a LED coin counting bank (see link below).

You can play if you live out of the United States, but the U.S. resident with the highest points will get the prize (too expensive to mail internationally).
Honor system!
Clad U.S. Coins - face value in points
Any foreign coin or bill - 5 points
Tokens - 20 points
Revised: U.S. Bills count, too! 100 points for $1, 500 points for $5, 1,000 points for $10...
Revised: In addition to the above points, extra points for:
Wheaties - 25 points
Anything real silver - REVISED: 500 points (coins, jewelry)
Anything real gold - REVISED: 1,000 points (coins, jewelry)
ANYTHING you found that you return to the original owner by Jan. 31st - REVISED: 2,000 points! (rings, dog tags, keys...)
I made an Excel 2007 spreadsheet for anyone who would like to use it to track their totals. If you send an me a PM with your email address, I'll forward it to you!
REVISED: This post will be for questions and sharing finds.
I'll start another thread on January 31st to post your total points and the breakdown of your finds, and will pick the winner from that post on the night of February 1st!
