    First Question: I have a modest collection of Libertads. Love em!
    Guess how many I have in total pieces.
    Second Question: I'm a Variety guy. Guess what Variety, on what specific coin, is my favorite!
    Only One guess per Question per person. Only one per! NO EDITS, please. The first right answers will win! If not guessed, the closest to the total of coins, over or under. Will win. If nobody guesses my favorite Variety in 4 days. I'll change that Question.

    Also, since you’ve already announced winners, I’m totally fine that @ElKevvo gets the prize… but I’m pretty sure I guessed 17 first :p

    I was going to guess 18.
    I have a modest collection of libertads too and honestly couldn't tell you how many.
    I find it interesting though that you don't have any in gold.
