Joseph7420 Bedrock of the Community Canada 11922 Posts	Posted 10/22/2017 11:55 am I never thought I would win a round! So, I have tried to search for a coin that is easy to get approximate matches for, but not so easy to match exactly. With this one, getting at least three points should easy-ish, but an exact match definitely would not surprise me. The challenge coin: 20 cents from Newfoundland, 1900. Two points - Exact country: Newfoundland. One point - Approximate country: Canada. Two points - Exact denomination: 20 cents. One point - Approximate denomination: any cents with a value between (and including) 10 and 50. Two points - Exact date: 1900. One point - Approximate date: plus or minus ten years (1890 to 1910). And with three days, this round will end on Wednesday, meaning I have school then. So... let's say it will end at 2:10 PM forum time. I should be able to get some Internet access around that time. First exact match wins, and if there is not an exact match, the person with the highest number of points will win. If multiple people get the same highest point, then the first that posted will win. And the round starts now! Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34423 Posts	Posted 10/22/2017 1:18 pm Here is my best attempt at a match: 1858 Canada 20 cents. Looks like it is a three pointer.

AgCoinAu Pillar of the Community Canada 3049 Posts	Posted 10/22/2017 10:14 pm I don't have a 1900 or any in the range of 1890 to 1910.. so I decided I'd put up the first 20 cent piece I have. Edited by AgCoinAu 10/22/2017 10:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff

The points so far: 6 - oriole 5 - Arkie 4 - AgCoinAu 3 - Spence 3 - Dorado 2 - pepactonius 2 - bd251 (the date on that one is between 1912 and 1936) So, even though we have a winner, feel free to keep posting coins for this round. And remember, any amount of points is better than no points! Quote: I have some more modern Canadian 10 & 25 cents but, nothing photo worthy. Even two points.

oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5246 Posts	Posted 10/23/2017 07:20 am I didn't even know I had that! I knew I had a few somewhat worn 20 cent pieces but I could not remember the years. The round ends on Wednesday, so let us see if we can exceed 8 submissions, which is I believe the most that we have had on a round. Report this Post to the Staff
