I think the best I can offer is this 1947 25 cent from Canada for 10 points.  3 points for Canada 2 points for other silver 3 points for 25 cents 2 points for other monarch (George VI is on obverse) |

You were holding out on us, Dorado.  I guess that technically makes you the winner, even though the round isn't over quite yet. If anyone else wants participation points, feel free to post until about noon tomorrow.

Canada, 25 cents, 1883-H (the 3 is just visible, and with the H mintmark this means it can't be anything except 1883). I think there's some tooling on the obverse. I count 14 points, but I really didn't want to win with such an ugly coin, so I didn't post it until I could be sure I wouldn't win! |
