OK some more solutions and my guess for today

Everyone is working very hard!!

a+b+c = 87
the atomic weights of nickel copper zinc
or said another way a + b + c = 187.6194
the atomic mass in g/mol of nickel copper and zinc

Alloys made from this are called "nickel silver" (trivia)

10-07-50 -President Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete (born October 7, 1950) Current president of Tanzania... who is actually not featured on any of the coins as far as I could find out and did come to power in December 2005...

a+b+c+d=22
10 sides, 10 corners, obverse and reverse = 22 (I am terribly unsure of this)

A lot of the coins with sides are plated or otherwise contain steel which was not mentioned....

So my guess will have to be 1976 5 Shilingi, 10th Anniversary of Bank of Tanzania coin

Of course, the Tanzania part is indeed correct.

However none of these years or amounts are correct.

a+b+c = 87

Yes! (Ni + Cu + Zn) (Nickel Brass)

the atomic weights of nickel copper zinc
or said another way a + b + c = 187.6194
the atomic mass in g/mol of nickel copper and zinc


Yes!

10-07-50 -President Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete (born October 7, 1950) Current president of Tanzania


Well done!

a+b+c+d=22
10 sides, 10 corners, obverse and reverse = 22


This is not the reason I chose this clue.

Moe, was the a+b+c+d=22 referring to the digits in the year? 1+9+6+6=22?
