Seems to be a few different routes for the orient express, so it's a little vague.

Was the coin issued in any of these, Czechoslovakia, German States, Serbia (German occupation), or Switzerland?


German states have no coins which fit the criteria.

Orient express definitely went through Switzerland (Lausanne and Zurich) and Serbia (Belgrade).

My question was about all the routes on the map, one of which clearly crosses border into Slovakia and therefore Czechoslovakia (whether Orient express actually did is irrelevant to the purpose of the question). Also seems to cut border into Czech Republic.

So if this coin isn't from Bohemia and Moravia, can anyone come up with another country which could have issued this coin.

OK, I'm clutching at straws here.
I have deleted my question.

True. Could have been from a country in Europe but issued elsewhere.

Looks like I made a mistake:

1. This coin was not issued from a country in the Americas.
2. This coin was issued from a country in Eurasia.
3. This coin was not around in 1890.
4. This coin was not issued in Asia.
5. This is a circulation coin.
6. This coin is not from the 21st century.
7. The country of issue does not have a Mediterranean coast.
8. The country of issue does not have an Atlantic or Baltic sea coast.
9. The Orient Express did not pass through the country of issue. (really hard to see on the map)
10. This coin does not come from an island nation.
11. The diameter of this coin is less than 25mm.
12. The country of issue is not less than 1,000 square miles.
13. This coin does not contain silver.
14. This coin was around in 1991.
15. This coin was not issued in what is now known as Germany.
16. This coin was not issued before 1940.

I will give you an extra question (21) for the mixup.
