Yeah, that is the one I was referring to.
I have no idea what it is, but I do not have a Krause and must rely on the Internet!
Clues... good idea!

where on earth would the inscription be?
and last but not least - how did you make the cut-out effect?

Most of the coin is pictured.

You would have been able to see parts of the inscription in the corners, had I not removed them.

I didn't make the cut out effect. That's how the coin is. This example is a proof coin so the cut out effect has a frosted finish which makes it look like that.

One day left!

If no one guesses, I will start giving clues.

One a day, till someone gets it.

Time's Up!



OK, how about a clue.

This is the whole reverse (still without the legend)
And as a huge clue I can tell you that QEII is on the other side!

Even with the reverse I don't know.

It might be, again, a crown from a small little island country under the crown...

I can tell you it isn't a collectors "coin" or a commemorative. It is a legitimate circulating coin. Albeit this example is a proof version.

Solomon Islands
20 Cents
KM5, KM20, or KM28... I am not sure what the differences are (that would be visible in that photo).

I finally got one!

Don't ask me how I got KM20 in there, because you know I was thinking 20 Cents!

I originally had posted "KM5, KM28, or 'new'..." as listed here. But then I found another page (cannot remember the URL now, the 'history' is at home) that listed only KM5 and KM28 for all issues, so I edited the post and managed to mess it up!

Anyway... I doubt I can top that one, but I will try. My offering will come sometime today, so get your reference materials ready!
