These would either have an FF or an FM mint mark, right? Do we even have any more people to guess the remaining few options?

We have 4 guessers who have taken their best shot and missed the mark.


We just wanted another history lesson. .

Well, we are at 15/20 questions, but I think we have enough info to start giving guesses.


We've been had.


Quote:
Is it possible someone will ask the 2 remaining yes/no questions and determine the answer?

Do we all know the difference between a yes/no question and a guess?


By the way, this coin does have a MINTMARK!!


Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Ahh, that is rather nice. Guess you still have a guess James Hicks. Make sure to include the Mint Mark or it might be counted as a question.

I don't think anyone said "My guess is"

But I came close.

Go get him

7. Guesses require a date, general name, and mintmark (if applicable). Guesses should be labeled as a guess, for example, "I guess..." or "My guess..."

Hint- They were only struck in one mint for the remaining years, so you really don't need the mint mark. Just thought I'd induce a little panic.

Well if that's the case, we are well past 20 questions.


Time for an arbitrator.

Well ... keith12 and loonielewy announced theirs as guesses, best I can tell. However, in the spirit of sportsmanship, I think we can take a couple more as "guesses" rather than questions.

That's my 2 cents' worth.

Does this coin bear a date which is earlier than 1780?

If greasy's guess is not correct, then my question was #19, and we have two dates from which to choose.

Sorry, that is incorrect.

I really hope I am not the only one with a guess left, I would much rather be a guesser.
