i hope I dont make this too easy or hard, but it is intended to be educational .. The first person to answer all the questions right will get a Canadian 1967 Proof like set housed in a capitol holder Km# PL18 .. okay here it goes .. "The word dollar evolves from the german thaler" since it was succesful in the 16th century .."Other countries struck similar pieces, giving them names derived from thaler" the countries are 1) Netherlands  2)Denmark 3)Italy 4)Poland 5)France 6)Russia all the names are abbreviations of "Joachimstaler"  Edited by scoutjim99
