Here's one of my highest scoring: 1903 Guadeloupe franc with 20 sides (Icosagonal)...   So 20 sides times 25.2mm equals 504  I also happen to have the same coin as trig has... Edited by mrwhatisit

That's the one I was thinking of Jbuck.
Time to declare Mrwhatis it the winner.
Bring on the next round.

Since I like unusual coins (hence my username here...) I'd like to try a tad different idea... Post a silver coin with the most unusual silver content you can find... For my example, this is a Mexican 1935 50 centavos with an unusual 42% silver content (which I have never seen before):   Scoring: For silver coins with either 30% 50%, or 62.5%, 3 points, For 72%, 75%, 80%, 5 points, For 83.5%, 90%, 92.5%, 7 points, On the odd silver composition coins not mentioned above, 10 points anywhere below 50%, 12 points between 51% and 75%, 14 points above 75% to pure silver... Numista can be a very good resource here... May have to edit perhaps? Edited by mrwhatisit

Alright, time to see who gets the win! Cool coins everyone  Bd251: 86.8%, 14 points, Hondo: 90.27% and 99.99% also 14 points, Jbuck: 35%, 10 points, Trig: 80% and 10%, 5 and 10 points... Let's see: Both bd251 and Hondo score the same, but I can give it to Hondo since two coins were posted of the same score  |
