    Had to go to the bank to get these. Hate to see us stuck on Canada. Proofs scanned through crappy plastic.

    Thanks for the bump.

    I'll bump it again, but I'm afraid I can't play in this round- I have no Ike dollars or anything that modern imaged.

    Who wants to go to bat next?

    (Mine's also a 1913 T2 Buffalo, in case it isn't so clear in the picture). I couldn't resist adding the dig shot and a shot of the site.

    1913 or Buffalo nickel to the next player.

    OK, I'll dig up another dug coin sequence from one of my old outings in the parks.

    Kind of a cheat, since the date doesn't show in the picture, but it was an 1889, as the text indicates.

    So that's 1889 or V-nickel to the next player.

    Netherlands or 1889 to me, eh?

    OK, if I remember correctly, this Kronenthaler from my Holey Coin Vest was struck for the Austrian Netherlands, though I could be mistaken.

    Anyway, we'll play Austria or Netherlands or 1797 next.

    Ok, now I'm confused....image Did you just play another of your own coins??? image

    If it's still Austria or Netherlands or 1797, I'll play this from Great Britain:

    One of my favorites. I guess the next one can be Spanish, Mexican, or 1797?

    Right back to Great Britain, 1797. This must be a common date for these.

    Not just a common date, Becky, but a new and revolutionary steam-driven presses from Bolton and Watt.



    << <i>The copper coinage of 1797 had been entrusted to Messrs Bolton and Watt of Birmingham and to these gentlemen the nation is indebted for the improved machine now used in the Royal Mint on Tower Hill The machinery works the screw presses for cutting out the circular pieces of metal out of plates and coins both the edges and faces of the money at the same time and that with such rapidity that four boys by the machinery are capable of striking thirty thousand pieces of money in an hour... >>

    It's okay. I think folks got confused when I went from Austrian Netherlands 1797 to Austria 1695, which was admittedly a weakish link.

    We'll play on with the "hijack" to avoid backtracking too much.


    Since the last coin in play was a 1745 British halfpenny, I will go with a 1738 British halfpenny.

    The austrian Netherlands had almost nothing to do back then with the Netherlands itself, and absolutely nothing with the coinage. So, I hereby confirm that lordmarcovan:

    CHEATED!!!

    It's a shame!

    It's MY thread, so I cheat (a leeetle teeeny bit) from time to time, so nyah nyah. Pbllltt! image

    ANYWAY, we're playin' it as it lies, and since we ended up with Great Britain, I (quite legally) have posted a British coin.

    Great Britain or 1738, folks!
