14.) Was this coin issued in South America? No

15.) Was this coin issued in 1892, 1897, 1899, 1929, 1944 of 1945? Interesting question, but No

That rules out Ethiopia, Lebanon, Philippines, South Africa, Syria.

Can't really see any other coins not minted and issued in the same "country" and not minted in a commonwealth "country"

Mongolia is out because 1925 is in the first quarter of the century.

Only possibility I see is that Nepal doesn't mint their own coins....

I can assure you, my coin is on Keith's numista list from earlier, somewhere...

Also there is some "porkiness" going on between various websites differing on a few points

Updated recap:

A circulation coin weighing less than 2.5 grams,
Not from a commonwealth country,
Less than 16.01mm (according to Numista)
Contains precious metal
Denomination is less than a quarter of a unit of currency
Not issued in South America
Not issued before 1868, 1892, 1897, 1899, 1901-1925, 1929, 1944 or later...
Coin not issued in the same country it was minted in

Coin not from Hungary and not billon
Looked at Q13 again, where some porkiness exists between websites...

BCTEG to xxx

That might steer you guys perhaps...

There are coins that match all the criteria in my updated recap

Unless you all want me to be GM again...
But you can still get me perhaps with the right questions

Believe me, it will all make sense when this coin gets revealed

The diameter of this coin must be very close to 16mm!

Was this coin minted in the USA, Netherlands, France or Spain?
