I'll give copper plating 2 points

For some reason I didn't think of the Britannia reverse on British coppers as being ocean themed, but it definitely is! You also missed a point for Britannia's trident.

triggersmob - 11 points
jbuck - 8

I like that one. I hadn't seen that new(er) design before. It's a nice evolution of the starfish one cent design. Thanks for introducing it to me.

You are most welcome, bd. Evidently I don't have a single coin from Barbados, and that's the only one from Bahamas.

Has it been three days already?!

Time to declare triggersmob the winner with the 1806 penny worth 11 points. A great history for that piece as well.

@NumisEd I think your highest scoring coin from that set would be the 1 cent for 8 points.
