Good job Spence. We have 24 hour to guess guys. I'll start.

My guess is a 2 Paisa - Sayaji Rao III (Baroda) 1946 (1889).

You guys are picking my coin if I win. .

1. This coin was minted somewhere between 1888 to 1908 using the Gregorian calendar and oddly enough the date listed on the coin is not because it is 57 years later.
2. This coin was issued for use in the Baroda Indian Princely State.
3. This coin isn't silver.
4. This coin is in numista.
5. This coin's denomination is a 2 Paisa.
6. 21/21 questions used.


Guess #1: This coin is not a 1894 1 Paisa issued by Muhammad Ismail Khan (Jaora).
Guess #2: This coin is not a 1889 2 Paisa issued by Prince Sayaji Rao III (Baroda).

1. This coin is from Europe.
2. This coin is not dated.

I was wondering how quickly this would come up.

Is this coin from one of the countries of Europe that has German as an official or co-official language (Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Belgium, and Liechtenstein)?
