"issued by" might mean "minted by" in this instance.


I assmue "issued by" to mean the issuing authority that is named on the coin.
Minted by/in is more obvious: the place where the coin is manufactured.

To use examples that cannot be the answer in this round, the U.S. Trade dollar would be an example of a coin "issued by" the U.S. for use in another country. The legend on the coin is United States of America, but the intended place of use was the Far East.
The Netherlands 10 cents coins dated 1944 would be examples of coins "minted by" the U.S. for use in another country. They bear the legends of the Netherlands, not the U.S.
If this is the meaning, then all the English colonies are in play.

Does it warrant another clarification from the gamemaster?

So, you and I have two things in common! When I am feeling really lazy and don't want to grade schoolwork I come over onto CCF. It's a really bad habit (which ... ahem ... I am guilty of right now).
Go back to your schoolwork and ignore the noodges who want you to produce the photos. But as soon as you take your last final, WE WANNA SEE THE PHOTOS!.

Hi @Joecoin,
I got the feeling you were a softie under that gruff exterior
And I think I know the country in which this coin was meant to circulate,
But then I often think I know it all

Good! Your landlocked question has me scratching my head though ... A British coin meant to circulate in Mongolia? Afghanistan? Sudan? Rhodesia? Luxembourg (oh, wait...that was last round )

All kidding aside, it's great to have you on board, @steelhead. Have fun!

From Wikipedia:

As of 2019 the Greenwich meridian passes through

the United Kingdom,
France,
Spain,
Algeria,
Mali,
Burkina Faso,
Togo,
Ghana, and
Antarctica.

It also passes through the maritime Exclusive Economic Zones of

Norway (four times, via proximity to Svalbard, Jan Mayen Island, the Norwegian mainland, and Bouvet Island), and
Greenland (Denmark).

1. This coin dates to after AD 1600.
2. This coin was issued by a monarchy.
3. This coin was issued by a country that is partly in the Eastern Hemisphere and partly in the Western Hemisphere.
4. The country that issued this coin is not part of the European mainland.
5. This coin dates to after AD 1700.
Hint #1: this coin was issued by one country for use elsewhere.
6. This coin circulated in a country that is not land-locked.
Hint #2: Just to clear up the whole minted/issued subject, I agree with this statement: "all the English colonies are in play."
7. I'm about 90% sure that this coin was minted at the British Royal Mint.
8. This coin dates to after AD 1901.
