Yes. That is right. I'm glad that one was a little challenging.

Well that's a decimal twopence. I don't hecking know what the heck these feathers are of, but that's a decimal twopence as obviously as a silver American dollar has an eagle on it. Can't think of any other coin with a bunch of feathers on it, actually.
Now any harder ones, that are from like real obscure countries? More obscure than UK or US I mean

I figured it had to be a Spanish 50 pesetas, but it took me a while to track down which one. It's this one.

Oh, and if you want to avoid giving away any unintentional clues, give your pictures more generic-sounding filenames. Anyone can peek at the filenames.

That's correct. I didn't even notice the file name gave it away. How is this one?
