Keep it simple. Just post a coin you like and figure out what it is that you can use to score... dates, materials, origin, size, etc.

Should we branch out and allow medals and banknotes as well?

Finland euro starter kit. There's a 20 cent in there for 16 points. These sets were mixed dates, so it's 1999, 200, or 2001.
