Good work Triggersmob, but bd251 also scored 7 points and reached this score first, which means he is in the lead at this stage.

Any more entries? Will close this off in 18 hours board time that is midnight Monday board Time.

That would violate the rules, unless the challenge posted by the host was a combination of 20 different coins in one image.

Oh, and GO FISH.

Bd251 wins with 7 points. Triggersmob 2nd and JBuck gets 3rd for the magic phrase.

However my main computer gave up the ghost yesterday morning (About 36 hours ago and as a result) I have been using my old as tablet and laptop (Both c.early-mid 10s and they have Windows XP and 7), so hence the delay.

Sorry about this. I can post comments, but loading and posting pictures would blow this old lady apart (2013 - Lenova Ideapad 100)

Can't enter as I only have a 2gb laptop from 2014 that has no storage capacity and can only be used for basic surfing. Even choosing the full reply this morning caused it to crash and spend 6 hours doing updates,

Thanks, computer seems to be working a bit better now.

Getting my old one repaired and upgraded.

Forgot all my coins are saved to the CCF mainframe.

Prussian 5 marks.

1903 = +2 points
Crown sized with white metal = +2 points
European Monarch = +1 point
King in Military Uniform = +1 point with metal hun helmet?

Extra point for Kaiser Willy being Eddie's nephew and being half English through his mother Victoria Princess Royal and Empress of Prussia.

I agree. I have an old Dell desktop and an old Dell laptop (both around ~10 years old now) running Ubuntu.

And 22.04 (Jammy Jellyfish) just dropped yesterday!
