Indifferent for now - no real preference to any side. Though I'm not sure why the last few posts before jbuck's comment apparently got deleted.

A simple points challenge. Yes, I have used this different kind of Ike before, but not this specific Ike.  1990-P Eisenhower Centennial Dollar Proof
 To compete in this round, you cannot post either version of this 1990 Ike! One point each if you coin has one of these matched items: - Dated 1990
- Proof, specimen, or other specifically numismatic strike
- Depicts a military leader (officer)
- Depicts a Head of State
- Image of a building associated with person depicted
And to make it interesting, one point for each if you coins has one of these unmatched items (that do not exist on my example coin): - Non-US coin
- Non-decimal coin (a pre-decimal penny would count)
- Was minted before 1890
- Depicts a female
Tiebreaker will be revealed later.

Go to this site: http://www.coincommunity.org/gallery/If your browser complains about it not being secure, add an exception for it. Let me know if that works or not. I will upload to the main CCF site in a bit. Stupid gallery server.

Here is the image:  I am leaving the other in place above because I really, really want you people to try to get it to show because we suspect that images from the CCF gallery site are being blocked by some browser setting or other security measure.

I wouldn't be surprised if this coin wasn't my optimal choice [on second thought, having read the rules carefully, I know it wasn't], but it was at least my obvious choice...  USSR, 1 ruble 1990 Marshal Zhukov commemorative - proof I count 4 points: for 1990, Zhukov, proof, and not being a US coin.
