Loonie, that must be you poking your head up in your broken garage? If so, that would be a good one in Picture The Poster thread....

Here is my guess:

I guess the Italian Somaliland 1924 2 Bese N#22159

Nice coin MMM. I was tossing up whether to go 1/2 or 1 heller.
I went the wrong way, as always.

Is the diameter of this coin listed on Numista as larger than 27mm?

Q3 - Is the diameter of this coin listed on Numista as larger than 27mm? NO

You remove the possibility of a "maybe" answer when you word it that way. Numista either lists the diameter as larger than 27mm or it doesn't, no maybe about it.

So we had 3 winners here yesterday. MMM won 20 Q's, mrit took a bronze in GTP and I got the gold (3rd place) in mrwhiskers contest. Good show.

Is this thing older than 250 years?
