Well, I assume that no other CT members were able to correctly answer the questions 2, 8, & 10. So here goes and again thank you to those that had.

#2 "We all have our hobbies" was an Advertising slogan used by Collector/Dealer Luther B. Tuthill during the first decade of the 2oth Century. He primarily collected Currency and World Coins & Tokens.

#8 When the head of liberty is tied at the back it is called? Answer: A Fillet Head

#10 The earliest reference to the use Of "E Pluribus Unum " was ?

The correct answer to this question is "The Gentleman's Journal" from 1692-1694
The Phrase was first used by a French refugee living in London by the name of Pierre Antoine Matteux who was the publisher of the Journal. When the First Committee was presented by Du Simiterre with this motto it was probably due to his familiarity with a later publication called The Gentleman's Magazine which began publication in 1731 and which had assumed the phrase from the earlier publication.


And now , you know what you didn't know. Thank you.
