Quote: Awesome looking medal Dorado. We are normally open to exonumia, so why not. You can count the points though. More than : Quote: 213 points from "1 point for each diamond or square on the coin." Stop counting after 250 squares

I think I can go-fish this coin from bungle; I am not sure if these would count as squares on the reverse, but close enough for me  France 1987 10 francs, commemorative of the Millennium of King Hugo Capet first king of France  If I am adding right... 2pts for the date (1987), 5 pts for some of both copper and nickel, 2 pts for the diameter (25.5mm), 1 pt for weight less than 15g, and 144 pts for the "squared stars" equals 154 points, if one gets picky on those star points, then 298 when added that way  maybe... I am just trying it out here... Shout out to my fellow 20 questions gamers, you know who you are!

Sorry mrwhatis it, I can't allow your squares. They are more like Maltese crosses. Nice coin though.

Dorado wins again, surely not.
Sadly Steve, I don't think this challenge was a good one as the 2 big winners really had coins that bent and interpretated the rules a bit far.
Loving Halfcrowns. British and Commonwealth coins 1750 - 1950 and anything Kiwi. If it's round, shiny and silvery I will love it.

I know, I know, Maltese crosses are not squares  , but I was saying close enough since they were in a square pattern... I don't think I have that many coins with all that many squares on it  .
