Mr. never said words counted. Kronor is Crown(s), so his example would have been four, not three. You could even argue 10 Krornor is 10 Crowns, so 13 total!

But sure, I will take what can get and still lose... and lose well!

Well, let's see:

Trig: 819.26
Bd251: 176
Hondo: 65
Jbuck: 38.6

I was only referring to actual crowns, but good thinking jbuck on a loophole on the wording corona and variants on that spelling...

So the winner is Triggersmob

Thank you guys.

For the next round, I don't think anyone will be able to say "go fish".

Show any coin and I am looking for vowels on the coin.
Allocate each vowel it's numeric equivalent in the alphabet.
i.e.
A=1
E = 5
I = 9
O = 15
U = 21

Add the total of all the vowels and then add the total of the date numbers. Highest total is the winner.
I will also except Roman numeral ones as letters.

So using this steelie as an example.
A = 3 x 1 = 3
E = 8 x 5 = 40
I = 5 x 9 = 45
O = 3 x 15 = 45
U = 6 x 21 = 126
Total of 259 + 17 (for the date) = 276

Obverse: Wilhelmina Koningin der Nederlanden
Reverse: Munt van het Koninkrijk der Nederlanden
Edge: God Zij Met Ons
Engraver: P Pander

A: 5x1 = 5, E: 12x5 = 60, I: 7x9=63, O: 4x15=60, U: 1x21=21
Total of 209 + 26 = 235.

NumisEd, your maths is as bad as Mrwhatisit. Try again.

A: 5x1 = 4,
E: 12x5 = 55
Really?
