pepactonius Pillar of the Community United States 9395 Posts	Posted 05/30/2019 9:30 pm New challenge -- - Post your coin with the highest KM# ========================================== 1) Limited to coins in the Krause Catalog (generally after 1600. with some back to around 1500) 2) Coins mist have normal KM# NNN -- not X# (unusual coins) Y#, MB# etc. 3) Must not have KM# TnNNN (tokens), KM# ENNN (essais), KM# Pnnn (piedforts), KM# PnNNN (pattern), KM# PrNNN (provas/probas), KM# MSNNN (mint set), KM# PSnnnn (proof set), KM# SSnnn (special sets), KM# PLnnn (proof-like set) KM# TsNNN (trial strike) numbers, or any other special number. 4) For numbers like KM# 123.1, KM# 123A, KM# 123.7a etc -- only use the part before the . or a, etc. 5) For numbers like A201, A201b, just use the numeric part. 6) New coins not yet in Krause and older coins not in the catalog don't count, and will get 0 points. 7) The number of points awarded is numerically equal to the KM# -- see (4) (5) and (6), above. 8) In case of a points tie, the earliest post wins. If one user posts multiple coins, the one with the highest KM# is used. 9) Posts with no coin will get 0 points, but will appear in the leaderboard. If there are no valid posts, the first post with 0 points wins this round. 10) Please include the KM# in the post. 11) There are no bonus points for an exact match. 12) Added: This round ends June 2, 2019 at 21:30 forum time (EDT). If you don't have acess to a Krause Catalog, the online Numista catalog often gives the KM#, for modern coins. The challenge coin: Austria -- 25 Euro, 2011: (KM# 3204) https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces21378.html This coin has a colorized niobium center, and is part of the OFEG (One For Each Gimmick) subcollection.

Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 05/30/2019 10:57 pm Congrats Pepactonius! I don't have the Krause Catalog - how are coins arranged and where should I begin looking to find the highest number? Report this Post to the Staff
pepactonius Pillar of the Community United States 9395 Posts	Posted 05/30/2019 11:16 pm Quote: I don't have the Krause Catalog - how are coins arranged and where should I begin looking to find the highest number? I'd look at your newest coins from countries like Austria (up to KM #3275+), Canada (up to KM #2250+), Australia (up to KM #2200+), China (up to KM #2020+). The numista country list (in English) is here https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pays.php, and (in French) is here https://fr.numista.com/catalogue/pays.php. I'm not sure which list is more up-to-date.
