I cannot accept designer initials as a signature. I meant a signature like you would affix to a contract or other document.

However, the map of NZ counts since half of NZ is part of the Indo-Australian plate.

To be honest, any sort of map is going to count.

Another easy matching round

Yet-Another-Forum-Game---Numismatic-Go-Fish!
Yet-Another-Forum-Game---Numismatic-Go-Fish!

1853 UK Gothic Florin - Fine/gFine condition

Your challenge is to get as many points as possible. How to score.

The year 1853 + 5 points
1850 - 52 and 54 - 56 = 3 points
1840s and 1860s = 2 points
1830s and 1870s = 1 points
Any other date = no points

British coin (Can't be a Florin) + 1 point

Silver coin of .800 or higher fineness +1 point

Size 28 - 30mm + 1 point

Woman on coin + 1 point

Lions on the coin +1 point each

Full flowers and branches +1 point each (Not for each petal or leaf, must be full floral head or branch/vine)
Floral plants with flowers and leaves on stems count as 1 point for the whole plant, not for each stem or part.

Crowns on the coin +1 each crown

Script in language other than English and in western or orthodox script +1 point per language

Have fun, most points win!

Numisma Gothic Florin is a Florin = 0 points, you can't post an identical coin to mine. Not all Florins are Gothic, but all Gothic Florins are Florins (Of course a Gothic crown would be a points scorer).

Jbuck - 4 points, the size of the 50 cent coin is 30.5mm which is over 30mm

I should make it clear 28.0mm to 30.0mm not 30.9mm.

I have two sources that say otherwise... It is 30mm... Not 30.5...
