New round: show a coin, token, or medal based on a piece of art. Show the art (painting, sculpture, etc.) as well.
"The Wayfarer". Original painting by Hieronymus Bosch (ca. 1500).
Points: A: The difference between year of art and year of coin/token/medal, divided by 10. B: Coin/token/medal composition: base metal = 10, silver = 20, gold = 30.
In this case: A = (1985 - 1500)/10 = 485/10 = 48.5 points. B = 10 points. Total: A+B = 58.5 points.
Excellent topic, NumisEd! By the way, 20 Questions seems to be about how well a person can navigate Numista and I don't play it. I believe that sculpture is art, so my entry is this Mexico 5 Pesos from 1980. The reverse features Quetzalcoatl from the Temple of the Feathered Serpent in Teotihuacan, ca. 150-200 CE. ~170 + 10
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures
For the next round show your coins with people on one side of the coin. For the first coin there must be only one person, second coin 2 people, third coin 3 people etc. How high can you go without a break? 1 point for just a head. 2 points for a person laying down 3 points for a seated person 4 points for a standing person 5 points for a flying person ( in a plane or angel etc) Winner will be the person with the highest number of points wins.
