Does a wreath count?

A wreath is an assortment of flowers, leaves, fruits, twigs, etc. Therefore, it counts.

Quote:
LIBERTY text counts?

Sorry jbuck, but a point is allocated for an effigy of Liberty, not just the text.

Quote:
Lunar surface counts?

Yes, it does.

@jbuck, what is in the eagle's talons? Hint: a plant. Your total should be 7 points.

The branch is more twig than plant, so I ignored it. However...

So if NumisEd allows it, I will take it.

Khromtau, the walking Liberty is 7 points.
Issuer: +1, Denomination: +2, Bonus points: +1 for Liberty, +1 for a plant, +1 for a sun/moon, +1 for an animal.
I think that bd251 is the winner with the first post that got 7 points.
