CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 04/17/2020 12:55 am With Everything happening right now in the world, I thought this would be a neat idea to try. There will be 5 coins per quiz (if more are to follow), and they will all be modern, (this includes silver Washington's, silver half dollars, Lincoln wheat cents, memorial cents, Jefferson nickels, etc), hence the name. Difficulty will be ranging in no certain order. You must give a listing for each coin, such as DDO-001, or FS-101. You can use websites such as varietyvista.com, crdievarieties.com or doubleddie.com to assist if needed. Books and other variety resource material may also be used. If you don't know all the varieties, you can identify the ones you can. Name the date, mint Mark, denomination and variety. I will wait until April 19th to post results. If this quiz does well, I may do more in the future. If not, oh well, it was worth a shot. Good luck and give it your best shot! Have fun with it.... -CH27 I hope this forum is ok for this type of thing moderators....

SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 04/17/2020 01:20 am Going to go with: 1. 1960 D/D RPM 2. Pretty sure it's a Wheat cent DDO, which I don't get as many opportunities to hunt, but let's say 1945? 3. 1974 Half Dollar DDO-001 4. 1965 Quarter DDO-001 5. 1970-1973 RDV-008 Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 04/17/2020 8:47 pm @Coop, I just want to point out that the 1942 cent image you posted has the incorrect cross reference for DDO-008, which is correctly referenced to FS-104 instead of FS-101. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
