Welcome to number 2. Slightly different this time. I have thought of three different formats for this idea, so I will rotate them. This one is cryptic, with clues below. The rest is the same standard mumbo jumbo as before  You can ask questions, but I may not answer if it will directly give the coin away. However, so this doesn't take until next Christmas, if you ask a general question about the coin, eg. Is it from Australia? I will answer yes or no. If we start to get too far off track, I will add some clues. To be eligible to enter the contest, you must have 50 posts.I will post a picture of the coin when it is correctly identified. Here are the clues. I am an iconic figure to my Country. I am the first of my kind. I am special, and yet I am not. I was born free, yet imprisoned at the same time. I have a twin, but we were not born together. Before my twin was born, it was discovered that not all of us were the same. Who am I? Edited by latman100 11/03/2009 8:26 pm

We moderators are discouraged from entering contests, because it would be too easy to abuse our moderator superpowers. However, I can still ask questions if it helps get folks closer to an answer.  Quote: ...a general question about the coin, eg. Is it from Australia? I will answer yes or no... Well, is it?
