Wheezy is right, the lull in the contests was quite visible. I believe one guess per day is enough and it's clear when one should go and add a new guess. Let's keep it as it is.

Thanks for the help, WpgLwr and Syslav

Yes! #8 is Italy 50 Lire! And #3 is the Iceland 5 Aurar!

Current list:
?. Canadian Large Cent
?. USA, dime
3. Iceland 5 Aurar
8. Italy 50 Lire
10. UK (Great Britain) - Crown

Invisible ones, apparently! None from either your list or the unknowns in nod2003's are in this list.

Next Hint: One of the countries, which has not been mentioned yet, at one time was under British administration.

I must have been confusing earlier.. when I say none of the countries listed in someone's guess are in MY list, then you can scratch them off the potential country list altogether.

(Wheezy, sorry, none besides the already-guessed ones from your list are in mine.. read on)

From what I've said it is NOT so far, we have a "Definitely not" list (alphabetized for our convenience) and you can avoid guessing these countries at all:
Definitely Not:
Afghanistan
Albania
American Samoa
Andorra
Australia
Bahamas
Bahrain
Barbados
Belgium
Belize
Brazil
Burma
China
Columbia
Croatia
Cuba
Denmark
Dominican Republic
Egypt
Estonia
Falkland Isl.
Finland
Germany
Ghana
Gibraltar
Haiti
Hong Kong
Indonesia
Iraq
Japan
Jordan
---------cutoff is first 10 letters of alphabet--------
Minding the first-10-letters-of-alphabet hint, it would definitely, DEFINITELY not include the following:
Kazakhstan
Kenya
Luxembourg
Macau
Manchukuo
Netherlands Antilles
North Korea
Tannu-Tuva <--never even heard of this one!

Does that make more sense?

You also might want to use the slots for known countries & denominations to try to guess the unknowns - that's more chances for guesses. Unless you want to try to guess the position of the ones that aren't known yet.
