There is really no need for luck or crossed fingers with your record of success.

I managed to pick up the AH 773 coin for the opening bid (woohoo), but surely someone else has one to play.

Oh well, it's a waiting game now. I think the 7th may catch up before this tanka lands in Australia. No matter. Happy collecting.

The suspense is quite palpable
How-Far-Back-Can-We-Go?-Sixth-Edition!-Ended-At-1380-Waiting-On-1379
Ahmedabad, in western India, is the largest city in the state of Gujarat. The Sabarmati River runs through its center. On the western bank is the Gandhi Ashram at Sabarmati, which displays the spiritual leader's living quarters and artifacts. Across the river, the Calico Museum of Textiles, once a cloth merchant's mansion, has a significant collection of antique and modern fabrics. It also is the current location of a 1372 CE / AH 773 Delhi Sultanate billon tanka, making it's way via IndiaPost to the final destination of Encounter Bay, on the beautiful Fleurieu Peninsula in South Australia.

I believe we've had an edition bumped up in the last few days before closure before... I recall there being a question at the time about exactly when it's valid to close an edition!
(Would be hilarious if the 1372 finally shows up when it's 1373 day on the other thread but no 1373 had been posted yet. I'm hoping for earlier than that, though.)

It would be really nice if we manage to push this edition from 1460s all the way into 1360s. And of course there's a lot of interesting plans for the 7th edition up ahead (I'm hoping it would be well past the 1260s by the time the 8th gets anywhere close).

Too early to be sure but there's a good chance I might show up at my old Moscow apartment in August. If so, I'll try to take some photos and measurements of my Golden Horde coins, to be able to post them for ID - there could be a lot of interesting options in there to help with the 1360s and 1350s (and elsewhere in the 14th century, but especially in that area).

Please take care @j1m.

Yes it will be interesting to see how far back we can go, both in this edition, and then in the 7th, when the pressure of catch up is no longer present.

Onwards!

It is incredible what has been accomplished here, and I applaud everyone who has gotten us back this far, but can't we just focus on catching up the 7th edition and then go back farther on there? Most members can't participate in either edition right now, but can join in the fun of the 8th edition. I don't see the purpose of postponing the 8th any longer than necessary when you can continue this incredible 14th-century run in the 7th edition.

looking forward to seeing the 8th edition - maybe I can add there from time to time.
You will spamhammer the topic when it reaches 1962, I am sure.

With special runs in 1969 and 1994.

Just be aware of Rule #7.
