Although I am sure that nobody will believe me, I actually have a 1902 crown, but it is in a safety deposit box and I have no pictures! I can give you the benefit of the doubt, but we need pictures.  That is the same issue I have, not every coin I have has a photograph. |

Rather than sulk because I cannot get my 1902 crown easily, I will get close with this 1900 crown:   |

This is one of those where I have to tell myself, "No! I know it looks nice but you cannot go off on a British crown tangent!" " Maybe just one?"  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

I came across this ugly duckling tonight.  It's probably the only coin with a British monarch from another country I can get two points for: 1907 British-India 1/4 Anna:   In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

So a very well used 1897 1/12 Anna would be 3 points?  1 point for a British Monarch on obverse 1 point for the date 1 point for it being a fractional coin. Did I do that right? |

Almost! It's actually two points. If it was a fraction of a Rupee, then it would be three. For the one point "approximate" denomination, it should be multiple or fraction of the crown-sized denomination. I guess I could have made that a little clearer, sorry. Going into the final stretch 5- oriole - current leader5- Arkie 5- Coopertron5000 5- Finn235 4- pepactonius 4- MontCollector 4- mysilveryears 4- Joseph7420 3- spruett001 3- Dorado 2- jbuck Unless someone comes in with an exact match, then oriole will be the winner at 11:00 pm forum time. Since there is no 1901 dated crown, oriole's 1900 crown, sent as a proxy for his 1902, is the closest possible 5-pointer Edited by bd251
