And a very challenging contest it is, too. I've only got barely-educated guesses for all but a few of them... but since I won the last quiz, I shall disqualify myself so that others can share in GO's generosity. Good luck, everyone. May the Force (also known as "Google") be with you.  Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S.

Great photos.
It's really a challenging one, only a couple of them seem familiar to me.

I may guess, but expect I will be waiting for the answers to be posted to get ANY right. I really like that tree on #16. One of my other hobbies is Bonsai, & that tree looks kind of like one.

Email sent. Thanks! Is it number 10 Marijuana leaves? I don't think it belong to this Family Forum. By pointing that out, I believe I win by default.  |

Eesh, this is hard. I've got twelve of them pinned down, the other four are causing ulcers. >< I think I'll go ahead and shoot you an email with these twelve for verification. Just getting the answers correct is prize enough for me; I'd rather someone without an oversize Darkside collection have a chance at the prize coins. Hopefully I can find the other four before this drives me nuttier than I already am. Edited by ElleKitty

Well Only 5 People have even attempted to guess these. And there is an average of 10 correct. So without further ado. HINT #1 quote:
If people are struggling with #2 and #6 you might want to hint that two
of the coins aren't from "real countries".
