Incompetent, sick as a dog, ya I blew it. Dough! Even had time to change it but slept it all away. Thanks for the heads up keith, good try.

Say Oz, revue the coins I've played this year. I don't see many "Canada" coins.

It's hard to get good pics today. These will have to do.

I like how the yuan character used on thousand year old coins is still on Chinese coins today.

Oh boy, a 1 in 7 chance of getting it right, thought it more than likely was not the rarer of the two types to choose from, then had a one in three chance, so I picked one and ran with it...

Neat (dated! ) Chinese cash coin, and probably been buried for some time...

Nice Markka coin Loonie

Gonna find something now
