@Hondo Boguss can you be specific?

Yes, those berries count. 5 points

Potentially. If the coin is commonly referred to as a half dispite saying "50 cents" on the coin, I would say yes. An example would be a US receded edge Capped Bust half dollar. It only says "50 c" and lacks the edge lettering with "half dollar," but I don't think anyone refers to it as a 50 cent coin. A 50 euro cent coin, for example, would not get a point I don't think anyone calls them "half euros."

bd215, I was thinking that the King was a national/cultural personification.

Final scores

Hondo Boguss - 7 or 8 (couldn't decide how to call the country on this one. I wasn't looking for monarchs. More like Lady Liberty or Hispania)

Jbuck - 5

NumisEd - 5 (I think)

Triggersmob - 6

Hondo Boguss wins
