"Numismatic Gladiator" Cycle II: Index for the "cheap coin challenges" (NG11-NG20)

These little "Cheap Coin Challenges" arose from a friendly wager @Aethelred and @lordmarcovan had back in what became the first "Numismatic Gladiator" competition.

Aethelred claimed he still found as much joy in buying a $20 coin for his collection as he would a more expensive one.

lordmarcovan agreed and was thus challenged to a "duel" with $20 coins, winner to be decided by a forum poll.

The idea caught on and the first cycle of the Numismatic Gladiator "Cheap Coin Challenges" (NG1-NG10) was played in 2016. These games have hopefully demonstrated that there's still plenty of fun to be had in numismatics without spending a fortune.

It's really just all about fun, with a little friendly competition thrown in.

Hopefully, the subsequent contestants have had fun, too. Win or lose, it seems like they have.

Thanks to everyone who has watched and voted in these.

This thread is an index of "Numismatic Gladiator" Cycle II

The earlier games index may be found under:
"Numismatic Gladiator" Cycle I Index

You may also feel free to volunteer yourself as a contestant and/or suggest any themes that interest you.

Since these are cheap coin challenges, usually the price limit has been $20 US, or $25 if US coins were involved.
