    Trivia contests on the internet aren't true trivia contests; they're more contests about who can google the answers the fastest. And even if you legitimately do know the answer, there's no way to prove you didn't google it.

    I'd considered asking : Why post numismatic trivia here ?
    Those little trivialities create interest in the hobby, in my opinion. Maybe one of the more astute thread starters who "lead the masses" could create that thread.
    I'm just curious as to "WHY ? "
