You are right. I thought that it would still be considered bimetallic since the core and outer ring are the same metal. Apparently that's not the case. I'm confused on this issue too. If you look at the definition of trimetallic, it means a coin made of the 3 metals. So the French coin would fit that description, but then so would a lot of the coins we call bimetallic.

Germany Climate coin - Tropical Zone 2017   This is bimetallic as its two metals on the core and ring, the plasticy stuff in the middle does not count as a metal  - This coin is quite scarce now. Loving Halfcrowns. British and Commonwealth coins 1750 - 1950 and anything Kiwi.

Would include a 10 Dirhams of Morocco, but there is some Draconian rule over 1 coin per nation. Ok, I'll post that one then.

I think we should demand both sides of a coin.  Also polymer is not a metal.  I am claiming 15 points, Triggersmob is at 9 I worked out.  Loving Halfcrowns. British and Commonwealth coins 1750 - 1950 and anything Kiwi.

Fine, but seems a bit Mickey Mouse to me. Half a coin = full points, coins with double attributes = half a point?
If I was running this game, I would actually give triple points for a tri metallic coin given the rare beasts they are.
However it is your competition and your rules.
