What's this now? No kilo Gold bar as winner? Oh you all are going to regret this. Show your Revolutionary related coinage, pre 18th Century worth 3 points, 19th Century 2 points, 20th Century 4 points. The word Liberty is worth 3 points, Peace worth 2 points, Poor worth 2 points. English doesn't matter as long as the translation equates to those 3 words. Any individual on the coinage holding their arm up to the sky is worth 8 points. Just for fun y'know. Always loved the iconography of this coin. 1796 middlesex D&H-290 var Conder

RogerD, can you clarify what you mean by "Revolutionary related coinage"?

Any coin related to a revolution.
A commemorative, subversive Conder, revolutionary coinage during an uprising or war.
Subversive is a personal favorite but what have you.

The only coin I have which is connected to the subject matter is this 1994 100000 zlotych from Poland. It commemorates the 1944 Warsaw uprising against the Nazi Germans. 4 points for 20th century
