You guys are on the right track! You still have 18 questions left, so you may want to try and eliminate some of the possibilities with those!

I assume that "minted before 1900" rules out Kiribati (one of the places in all 4 hemispheres) as the issuer

Ok then one final question for me today--will stick with narrowing the date. Was it minted after 1875?

Good point. Knowing the coin is gold and its date makes either option pretty likely. Maybe that's the next question.
