Coopertron5000 wins with 7 points! (since it sounds like Hondo Boguss isn't up for hosting the next round.)
@Hondo Boguss I like that the host denomination is still visible on your coin. Very cool.

Executive decision time! First to post gets to host!  If no bites, I will come up with something later.
