So, does loonie's guess count as a question?


It's not a question, so no, it shouldn't. It's a guess on my part. I lost, so I'm out. But not down. .

I'm glad to hear everything is well.

So we're down to 1896-1902 $10 from the SF mint, with 3 questions left. 7 coins and 3 questions. The sharks are starting to frenzy.

Was the coin minted in the twentieth century? To clarify for JoeCoin, that's 1900 to 1999.

Yeah, I remember the 20th century, I lived through almost half of it.

You shoulda been there.


The coin in question however was NOT minted in the 20th century.

Yeah, I actually experienced the whole thing. Much like your coin, I was born in San Francisco in the late 1890's. It would be a great coincidence if the coin turns out to be from my birth year. *Fingers crossed*

Is the date on the coin an odd number?

You know, I think that I can prove that zero is an even number and infinity is an odd number. Not that that has anything to do with this thread.


The answer to your query is, no the date on the coin is NOT an odd number.


What made you think it would be?

It is only fruitless to those who guess incorrectly.

So what's your guess?

I think I'm done answering questions.


From now on I will only respond to guesses.

Just a hunch that it might take after its owner.

Maybe you should take your hunch back, Quasimodo.


Will you allow some lesser being to guess correctly before you do?

Yes, and I'm going to wait until the full 24 hours is up to reveal the winner. Unless it's jadey, if he gets it right I'm going to lie and say it was a different coin.
