8.) Is the population of the country of issue 10 million or more? No


Quote:
Another clue, one of those countries you mentioned did mint this coin


France
Italy
Spain
Ukraine
Poland
Romania
Netherlands
Belgium
Czech Rep
Greece
Portugal
Sweden

None of these countries have less than 10 million inhabitants. Except Sweden which - after rounding - is right on the mark.
So, you need to go back to ALL your answers and fix the mistakes you made.

Indeed one of these countries did mint this coin...

Historical references...

This region is mentioned in Krause and Numista...

Whose to say it was issued elsewhere?

11.) Was this coin issued by Vatican City or San Marino? No, not those.

Not to worry, one of you will figure it out

I may give more hints as questions keep coming...

Just give us a "yes" or "no" answer. Just make sure your answer is correct. Late changes are not acceptable, as the game proceeded based on the answers. A simple yes or no is all we need and keeps you out of unseen trouble as well. And what's this all about....1 or the other....you have to decide.

This round is confusing me.
I think we need an update.
I'm guessing we must be talking about a region within a country,
but let's narrow the countries down.

In the mean time.
Is the country of issue on this list?
France
Italy
Spain
Ukraine
Poland
Romania

Just throwing this out there, but officially there was no "Poland" from 1795 - 1918 as the land was partitioned between Prussia, the Habsburg monarchy, and Russia.

Let's narrow down the date: was this coin minted before Word War II?
