Good stuff. Lets ask Q's like normal, but give reasons and what not and where to fill in the blanks.

chafe you have to start with a blank Numista "filter" page. Exit all previous filters that may pop up and click on "Edit filters" icon. There's where you start.

Q1 is a date Q, so it will be entered into the Gregorian date box. Took me a few slaps to catch onto that one, right keith. . . Don't even think of using the Year box along with the Gregorian date, what a mess I've been in before. I leave Year blank now.

Q2 is a bit keithee, but that will go in the Coin types box. Pick both circulation and circulation commem for now until 1 is eliminated. Then you gotta click in the box again to activate your selections.

Q3 will set a range in Gregorian date box.

Sorry for highjacking the game.

Oz.....please.....pleeeeease....forgive me.

Edit. Nice hoodie keith. You animal fisherman. Now...tie a fly and enjoy some fresh brookies. .

At this point in the round "country of issue" is not that important.

Is this coin larger then 25mm?

I remember when it used to be. Different game then, still fun though. keith is right, lots of better Q's await.

I shouldn't ask another size Q until keith gets an answer. Doubling up on any unanswered Q is a no-no. Headslaps happen that way.

Weight Q's are a go though.

Does this coin weigh more than 16 grams?

Although I am sick at the moment and probably should be having a nice lay down, I must say that the weight question should wait until the diameter question is answered. If the diameter is less than 25mm, then not many coins will weigh more than 16g. If it turns out the diameter is larger than 25mm, then the weight question will be more relevant.

Q4 and 5 go in their corresponding box. Starting to get a range for both.

Q6 answer goes in Composition. Pick Precious near the top of the list.

Was this coin issued before 1862?
