- I have a coin from my collection that you will try to guess (eventually).
- Three hints are posted below. One hint that can lead to each of the following if deciphered correctly: Date, Composition, and the Design/Country/Denomination of the coin.
-Questions must be such that they are able to be answered by a Yes or No. Questions may not be directly related to the coin or the clues. For example: "Is the coin a 1926 Antarctica 20 Centavo?" (teeheehee) would not be accepted.
-The coin in question (literally) may be from ANYWHERE!
-Each CCF member will be permitted ONE guess at the coin.
-Your guess may be given at anytime from the beginning of the game to the end. No indication will be given to the fact of whether or not your guess is correct until 24 hours after the last question has been answered. At the end the winner - the first person to guess correctly - will be declared the winner!
-In order to be correct, you must give the date, denomination, and country of origin.

-If you have any suggestions or questions, please let me know!

Thanks!

1). Was the coin minted between 1889 and 1941?
2). Is it Canadian?
3). Is it from Norway?
4). Is it from Denmark?

This is a good one. I don't know which way to go. Basketball is throwing me for a loop.

I agree. Great job! I couldn't figure out the date. If you would have just given March Madness as a clue instead of just basketball. Well played Joseph and a good tough one Noah. Can't wait till next round.
