Quote: My guess is 1969 France 20 centimes KM#930. That's the one Coyote   I won't debate the bronze issue other than to state that is how I understood it... Aluminum Bronze is "any kind of bronze" and several sites state Aluminum bronze has many different alloy compositions such as: "Aluminium Bronze Alloy Copper-aluminium alloys, with 5-11% aluminium as the main alloying addition, sometimes containing a small amount of manganese or nickel. They are yellow in colour and hard wearing. A modern example of its use is with the 5, 10 and 20 centime coins of France." Which I obtained from this site: https://www.coins-of-the-uk.co.uk/p...al.html#AlBrIf that is incorrect, my apologies. You all did a great job guessing the coin anyway, so thanks for that... I had fun, hope you all did as well.

Sorry Loonie (not). Good round Iggy, and yes, the hint helped.
Well done on GTP Keith & Loonie. Keith is within striking distance of win. He might be able to do a Steven Bradbury.
