Sorry Ed not my coin, as Keith pointed out too small.

Not true. The 10 Kurus is 21.3 mm.

Q9. Is the diameter of this coin less than 21mm? NO

That's the one Coyote
20-Questions!-Forum-Game-11/04/24

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#AlBr

If 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.
