My Android U.S. Coin collecting quiz.

Hi all,
I hope this won't be considered too spamy or anything, but it seems like I've seen people post topics to and links to their coin related websites, etc. so hopefully this will be OK.
I just wanted to show people my Coin collection quiz I made for Android devices a little bit back - it is really just for U.S. coins - and the questions are really aimed at beginners. It is up on the Google play site. It is the 3rd item shown on my system if I type "coin quiz", but if you just type "coin" or "coin collecting" it seems to be lost a bit further down - I think it's because I don't have enough downloads and comments - I never have really advertised this anywhere - a few people have found it just browsing I guess.
The program is quite basic of course, but might be fun for some people to go through and review what they know. It asks multiple choice questions and then when you have gone through 15, it starts a new quiz. I figured some people here might have fun with it, and/or know someone who could use it.

U.S. coin quiz for Android
Just a quick background - Android Apps are mostly made with Java using Eclipse - I had some experience with Java quite a while back but wanted to learn about Eclipse and Android development so I work on a game first (you can see it in my other Apps - Goalieman is the game). After that I wanted to learn more about user interface in Android and overall I wanted to learn about putting Apps up on the Android marketplace (now called Google Play). I also made a trivia program for Tournament poker.
Anyway, it was fun to make this program and to try and think of some good questions - that was the real challenging part at times - thinking of good coin trivia, and 4 possible answers for each question. As far as I know, all the answers are correct, but maybe someone on this board will find something I did wrong or something - remember though - the goal is to select the "best" answer for each question.
The program is free to download (and it is small) for any Android device. Sorry there is no Mac (iPhone, iPad) version. If you want to try it, let me know what you think.
