Quote: 3 - Copper (on the outside) I'll give copper plating 2 points Quote: Additional points - ocean theme (1) (on reverse) For some reason I didn't think of the Britannia reverse on British coppers as being ocean themed, but it definitely is! You also missed a point for Britannia's trident. triggersmob - 11 points jbuck - 8

I like that one. I hadn't seen that new(er) design before. It's a nice evolution of the starfish one cent design. Thanks for introducing it to me.

You are most welcome, bd. Evidently I don't have a single coin from Barbados, and that's the only one from Bahamas.

Has it been three days already?!
Time to declare triggersmob the winner with the 1806 penny worth 11 points. A great history for that piece as well.
@NumisEd I think your highest scoring coin from that set would be the 1 cent for 8 points.
