I thought that it might be fun to challenge each other with some Jeopardy answers & questions (we'll see if it catches on).
Can you answer? Can you develop a clues in the form of answer and stump the Forum?

I’ll start, US Coins for $200, “At quick glance, this plain Lincoln wheat cent maybe mistake for a Philadelphia Mint, but it’s not”

“What is….”

    I wonder if someone has a list of numismatic questions from quiz programs.

    "Mr. Van Doren, which US president is portrayed on the Lincoln cent?"

    A: The longest-running U.S. coin without a major design change.
    Q1: What is the Liberty quarter eagle (40 to 07 = 68)? [unchanged obverse, reverse and composition]
    Q2: What is the Roosevelt dime (46 to 22 = 77)? [unchanged obverse, reverse]
    Q3: What is the Lincoln cent (09 to 22 = 114)? [unchanged obverse]
    Q4: What is the Roosevelt dime (46 to 22 = 77)? [unchanged reverse]

    If we were all the same, the world would be an incredibly boring place.

    They changed the FDR dime from .900 fine silver to copper-nickel clad giving it a totally different appearance which I consider to be a major design change.

    @PerryHall Thats a composition change. The design remained the same.

    When you change the appearance of a coin, you change the design. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. :)

    @Joe_360 What is the 1919 Lincoln Cent? I know because I thought I had something good until I photographed it. I just looked at the MS69 1919 Lincoln cent and saw the beauty that is the MS69 1919 Lincoln.

  • Joe_360Joe_360 Posts: 1,735 ✭✭✭✭✭

    1918, they moved the VDB to the Obverse o Lincoln's shoulder - first it was at 6:00 on the reverse, then removed and then added back on his shoulder
