Quote: Rule number one. You can't use this same coin. I assume this meant the exact coin, i.e., date and motif. 1970 Australia Cook 50 Cents  3 points for a coin from Australia 3 points for a coin with denomination of 50 12 points (1 for each side on the coin, does not include front and back side, only the edge.) 2 points for 1 explorer on the coin. 3 points for any Monarch on the obverse of the coin. 1 coin for a coin in the 20th century 3 points for a copper-nickel coin +1 for any map on the coin 28 points (assuming assumptions and additions are accurate).

It is kinda entertaining that I have exactly the same coin as jbuck, but not in gem condition, so I would get exactly the same amount of points, 28. I just got home from work not long ago, but I am not sure if I have a coin to top his.

Post a pair of coins. They must be minted in the same year, but represent two different countries (they can be the same mint, for countries that do not have their own mint). 2020 Mayflower 400th Anniversary UK 2 Pounds  2020 Canada Quarter  Scoring: Age times ten plus the distance between the capitals of the countries represented (in km) divided by ten. Please use whole numbers only. From my example: (2022-2020) * 10 + (5358/10) = 20 + 536 = 556. High score wins.
