Welcome to my new game!

The objective: Guess the coin from a series of clues put out during the round. Each round will last 2 weeks and a clue will be released every 2 days until the deadline. There may be an period of time between rounds, but it won't last more than a week unless otherwise stated. Each season will have 10 rounds, all of which will be on this topic. You have to guess the design, not the year, for example, if the coin you were trying to guess was a wheatie, you could post one from any year or mint, otherwise the game would be way too hard. Each round may have multiple winners, as with most guessing games, the game won't end once someone guesses correctly, so don't think you lost because there are a lot of guesses. All winners receive 7 points per round minus 1 for every hint since post with a maximum of 70 per season (doubt that will happen lol).

The rules: 1.Each person only gets 1 guess per clue. 2.No cheating, although I can't monitor this, I trust you all that you will rely on your knowledge of coins to solve this, and not a site like Numista, where you can find coins from small amounts of info. 3.Don't edit your posts. 4.Have fun!

This is the beginning of a new game, so if you come across an issue, don't hesitate to let me know, and I will work to fix it.

It will be mostly american coins, but we have a diverse world of members, so I am going to incorporate some countries that are closer to home for them.
