I didn't state when I'd close this round, so will give folks until Sunday. ...wait, which time Sunday? I'm asking because my current plans involve a visit to a coin-selling place (for the first time in weeks, and the second time in months) on Sunday afternoon (circa 9-11 AM UTC), so if there's enough time I might be able to buy something there and post it a few hours later. (Now, I still don't expect to get a 3 pointer. But I'll think of something. On second thought, it will be more convenient for me if the next challenge starts by then, but I doubt that this could be arranged within 10 hours!) |

Good point-looks like @j1m will have to join the next round. Dorado wins by being the first to post a three point coin.

1 point x coin. Just checking: is it your intent that there aren't additional points for posting multiple of the same denomination? "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."
