I've been waiting for a Franklin, NumisEd! Here's mine, but just a Friendly. There are so many other numismatical items with a bell that someone will come along and blow us out of the water!

I'm not sure if I have a pic of a Franklin half, (un)fortunately.
I do, however, have this...

Ukrainian 200,000 karbovantsi coin, commemorating 10 years since the Chernobyl disaster.

IIRC this is one of very few Ukrainian coins denominated in karbovantsi - that was a temporary Ukrainian currency in the 1990s (prior to introduction of the hryvnia), and it had no circulating coinage (only banknotes/coupons), but apparently several commemorative types, including this one, were denominated in it anyway.

The karbovanets was replaced by the hryvnia in September 1996, so this 1996 commemorative (the relevant anniversary was in April 1996) must have been one of the last issues in it!

Nice challenge!

1791 Glasgow Halfpenny token.

The obverse features the city's coat of arms - a tree with a bell hanging from it.

I thought for sure I would have some notgeld with a bell. Lots of churches, but no bells.

Sorry guys, I've been on call for work all weekend and its been absolutely bananas.

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

One of many areas of interest for me is medieval cut coins. For those of you unaware of these, for several hundred years in England, the smallest Denomination was a penny, so it was common practice to cut the coins into halves and quarters (forthlings.. Farthings) I believe this practice was also carried out in Ireland and Scotland and I dare say other countries aswell.

Above is my example. A Henry III cut Halfpenny.

Points

Country
3 England
2 United kingdom/Scotland/Ireland
1 Europe

Denomination
3 Halfpenny
2 Any other fractional Denomination

Year(s)
5 1247-1272
4 1200-1300
3 1100-1400
2 1000-1500
1 Anything pre 1600

Bonus points
5 A cut coin
5 A hammered coin
5 Any marks identifing a mint or Moneyer
2 Silver
2 Featuring a monarch

Very interesting idea!

Unless I can post a US Half Cent for 2 points, I got nothing.
