spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 07/11/2019 02:25 am I believe this is the first "two coin" challenge. Nice idea! Since most of my coins are northern hemisphere, I'll have to search those southern coins for a good match.

Palouche Pillar of the Community Spain 2752 Posts	Posted 07/12/2019 6:22 pm Phew!..Thanks for posting bd251.. I was beginning to think this challange was a complete flop!...And yes I'll allow Bronze and Copper as a similar metal so lets see if we get anymore posts.. Must admit I didn't think this challange was that difficult so apologies but was just trying to do something a bit different and make it a bit more interesting....About 5 hours to go unless you people want another 24 hours and finish midnight Saturday?.....Paul Report this Post to the Staff
Arkie Pillar of the Community United States 2637 Posts	Posted 07/12/2019 8:58 pm I found a great match between the Saudi 1/4 riyal and Aussie 6 pence -- 19.5 mm, 2.9 v. 2.8 gr, silver -- but Australia has been taken. Spent over an hour looking for another match, and I give up. Report this Post to the Staff

Palouche Pillar of the Community Spain 2752 Posts	Posted 07/13/2019 08:26 am Quote: 3) Both coins must have the same date..can be in any language.. Sorry Arkie your coins dont meet criteria 3... The 1/4 Riyal is dated AH 1374 = AD 1954/55 The 6 pence is dated 1943 So the only contender at the moment is... bd251 on 8 points Will let it run til midnight tonight then call it in...

I think it's a good challenge. I think the necessity for the coins to have the same date increases the difficulty significantly. I was just fortunate that I have quite a few 1917 coins already imaged. Report this Post to the Staff
