Not an awkward question at all.
We were not surprised to receive this question, and there must be many people with the same concerns as to Gambling Commission regulations and our proceedures, so we are very please to be able to display Mr C’s question, and our response.

Hi,
I am interested in entering your prize draws but am slightly concerned about what happens if your competitions fall foul of the Gambling Act 2005. My understanding is that the question asked needs to restrict the number of people able to enter. Given that you basically give the answer away by stating the size or weight of the coin, I am unsure whether the competition would stand up to scrutiny by The Gambling Commission. A good website to read on this issue is http://www.out-law.com/page-6780
