Welcome to the first of hopefully many more 'Who am I' contests.

Christmas is just around the corner and I am in a giving mood. However, you need to do a little work in order to get.

These competitions will be simple, I will have a coin as a prize, and you have to guess what the coin is in order to win it.

I will start with a few simple clues and let you take it from there.

You can ask questions, but I may not answer if it will directly give the coin away. However, so this doesn't take until next Christmas, if you ask a general question about the coin, eg. Is it from Australia? I will answer yes or no. If we start to get too far off track, I will add some clues.

To be eligible to enter the contest, you must have 50 posts.

I will post a picture of the coin when it is correctly identified.

To kick things off, I am starting with a coin that I think is one of the ugliest coins ever made (is this a god way to get people involved ...)
It is NOT an Australian coin (because they are all beautiful )

Good luck.

If it's American, it's got to be the Susan B. Anthony dollar!

No to all the above. However, we are in the general geographical area when thinking Euro.

And DV, I already gave that one away.
