The funny thing about this contest...I did more research, trying to figure out the answer, than I have on any other contest I have entered. I learned a lot. I am just competitive. Being declared the winner is prize enough for me. I just wish I would have asked a better question. Mine was by far the worst.

Wait, nonononono! I'm here! Sorry, I was away for a while.
Here is my question if I can still submit it: Was this coin minted during WWI?

I hate to say it but with the rules of the game as written, jay4202472000, I think has it won. But my guess is just a tad more detailed than his answer is A Canadian 1916 George V Large Cent I'm just hoping that the denomination answer "MUST BE" specific and not generalized. If so, got'cha jay4202472000.  |

Oops, sorry Noah and Tzarmarko. It looked like that was an answer to a question no longer shown. My bad.

I agree, I think the correct answer has already been given. As such, I see no reason to repeat it, but maybe it's not! Even still, learned a lot of interesting stuff along the way.
