I don't have taken too many pics of much of my US collection unfortunately.  However, here is an impaired 1996 proof Dime that I picked up in change somewhere. By my calculations the melt value is $1.7745, which gives me a score of 0.056.   "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

I am hoping NOT to win as coming up with new challenges is hard. Just a quick reminder that @pep offered up a list of potential new challenges several pages upthread: Quote:
Maybe it would help if we had list of ideas to be used for future challenges. Things like:
- oldest coin with lettering
- newest coin with no lettering
- oldest coin with airplane, car, locomotive, ship, etc.
- star with the most points
- coin with the largest central hole
- etc.
A moderator would have to collect these in one place, I suppose. "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

United States -- 5 oz Ag / 25 cents, 2016:   face value = $0.25 melt value = 5 * $24.63 = $123.15 ratio = .25/123.15 = 0.00203004466098254165 (I guess I'm in last place?) |

Or vending machines/coin star finds.
Or even if you just found it on the ground.
But nothing that was purchased.

How exactly would you like us to measure the distance? From capital city of the foreign country to the city where it was found? Geographic center of the foreign country? I'm assuming you want us to Google maps or some other maps program to measure on the globe?

I simple typed "Distance Las Vegas to Taiwan" in google. It should give you a number every time. Though if you would like to be more precise you are welcome to.
