Big "Atta boy" there Sharkman. We're not beat yet. Good luck. Don't double up folks. Every guess counts.

Sorry for being incommunicado for a little while. My guess is Men# 19256.4.

One of the ones remaining has a date on it which I think would exclude it Quote: Well, I wasn't gonna say anything, but I have an issue with the way this round was conducted Also I find it amusing that y'all have an issue with how the questions were answered not that spruett picked a tram token as their "coin"

Quote: Also I find it amusing that y'all have an issue with how the questions were answered not that spruett picked a tram token as their "coin" That is also on my list of grievances, though I don't find it as egregious as the "primarily metal" comment. I'm calling for a full inquiry.

Quote: 10. This coin is primarily made of metal.
Now, this answer had me and everyone else scrambling to find "coins" that had some non metallic component to them. So there I was, barking up the gilded porcelain tree. I answered the questions as they were posed. That's how Spence worded it. I could have simply quoted the question verbatim and written Yes or No below it and the result would be the same. Quote: 15. This coin is aluminum.
I believe that an extra yes/no question should be allowed due to this deceit (whether the deceit was intentional or not) Keep in mind that I did not count the question about it being from Switzerland, though I could have. That essentially added a free question. Also, no one seemed to want to use the final question so I had to bend the rules to allow Gincoin43 to significantly narrow down the possibilities. Quote: Also I find it amusing that y'all have an issue with how the questions were answered not that spruett picked a tram token as their "coin" My coin is listed in Numista as a "circulating commemorative coin." Joecoin's guess, on the other hand, was listed as a "token." Quote:Gee, that was generous of you joe, I mean sprue. .  That hint eliminated the two 25 pfennig Regensburg issues.

Stop sounding like sore losers. The gamemaster played a good and fair game. The guessers have nothing to be ashamed of either. We got taken out of our comfort zone and still had it narrowed down pretty close. If you don't get challenged then what was the point. Still waiting for the answers.

Quote: My coin is listed in Numista as a "circulating commemorative coin." Numista can be incorrect  and in this case, since these tokens were primarily used for to pay for transport, it is, regardless if they ended up being used as barter or not. In My opinion is is equivalent to a Subway token. Quote: Final Summary
Do we get to know which one it is?
