I'm going to go back to the roots of the game and do an exact/approximate matching round.

1917 Finland 10 Penniä
Yet-Another-Forum-Game---Numismatic-Go-Fish!


Two points for exact (one point for approximate). Maximum 10 points possible

- Date is 1917 (1907-16, 1918-27)
- County is Finland or Grand Duchy of Finland (bordering County including Russian empire)
- Denomination is 10 (between 5 and 20 excluding 10)
- Material is copper (copper alloy)
- Size is 29-31mm diameter (25-28.99, 31.01-35mm)

In the case of a points tie, the player with the most "exact" matches will win.

Sweet coin @pep. My oldest coin from Finland is only from the 1940s and therefore won't cut it, but I think that this 10 Milliemes from Egypt will be my highest scoring coin:

- Date is 1917 (1907-16, 1918-27): 2 points
- County is Finland or Grand Duchy of Finland (bordering County including Russian empire): 0 points
- Denomination is 10 (between 5 and 20 excluding 10): 2 points
- Material is copper (copper alloy): 1 point (despite the silvery tone of my photographs, it is a copper-nickel alloy according to numista)
- Size is 29-31mm diameter (25-28.99, 31.01-35mm): 1 point as it is 26 mm

Total is 6 points.
