I updated the beginning post with all our guesses, hints and our "definitely not" list - I will try to keep that updated to make it easier. I don't know how many of you read everyone else's posts before you make your guesses (from what I've seen in other contests, some do not!)
...and, syslav: Two countries in the set of 11 is correct. One of them has been guessed multiple times, just not with the right denomination.

DL20K: None of those 3 are in the list. I guess you really did have to go, as you didn't finish your list  Nancy: Just a reminder - Burma is in the "Definitely Not" list. Two of your countries (besides the ones already guessed) are right. WpgLwr: One of your countries not already guessed is right. New "Definitely not" list: Afghanistan Albania American Samoa Andorra Australia Bahamas Bahrain Barbados Belgium Belize Brazil British North Borneo British West Africa Burma China Columbia Croatia Cuba Denmark Dominican Republic East India Company Egypt Estonia Falkland Isl. Finland Germany Ghana Gibraltar Haiti Hong Kong Indonesia Iraq Japan Jordan

Wow unnkown95, you've got 2 Italy denominations in position 8, positions 8 and 10 listed twice, and that poor dime in 2 places at once  Are you trying to confuse me?  nod2003, one of your countries not already guessed is right.
