Did this special occasion relate to this country's independence?

 

Don't feel bad, it took me a little while to figure out where the answer were, too.

BTW, that was a good question. Thanks for joining us in this quest for an answer to a mystery.

 

I have been answering all the questions by adding them to the first post. Once I've answered a question, I "like" the person's post.

 

Is it a round coin?

 

Is the coin from a country with more than 90 million inhabitants?

 

Is the coin related to a country that, in the past, we would have referred to the inhabitants/citizens as "Oriental" (Japan, Philippines, Korea, etc...) based on their facial features? (Basically, east of the Indian Ocean)

 

Gaming token?

 

That's a GUESS!

 

Was it produced by the Perth Mint?

 

Yes it was.

 

I felt this question was much too vague to be a guess. If you would like it to be counted as a guess, I would be happy to amend it.

 

Oh, let him keep playing. In two more rounds the interest in this game may be over.

 

That's one way to look at it.

Another way to look at it is that there are quite a few people participating in the game...and only one whining about it and trying to harass me. It's not my forum - so I can't kick you out of the thread. I'm not sure why you're acting the way you are, but it seems to happen a lot on other threads as well, so maybe it's just who you are right now. I'll let you take a closer look at yourself and deal with that however you choose. I'm not going to get into an argument with you and let the thread devolve into a tiff about rules and you trying to get me to change them for YOU...but I am going to put you on ignore if you continue to act like this.

Again, if you're so unhappy about whatever you've perceived as a slight against you, or if you're too impatient to play along like everyone else, GO. SOMEWHERE. ELSE.

I'm not trying to help certain people and not others. I'm not trying to change the rules in the middle of the game. I'm trying to answer everyone's questions as honestly and fairly as possible. You're the only one bent out of shape over that.

If you'd like to join the rest of us and keep trying to figure out what it is, ask your question. If not, you'll be ignored permanently and reported to the mods.

This will be my last response to anything you type in this thread that does not concern the actual game (again, to keep it focused on the game the rest of us are happy to play and not switching to an online argument.)

Chill out. Play the game and try to enjoy it. I learned something (not only about numismatics, but about world history) when I got this item last week - and to me, that's pretty cool.

 

I made a post that you considered a guess. Rules of the game I'm out. I just objected to slow speed, deferential treatment, and uneven interpretation of the rules. You thought up a fun game.

I quit this thread yesterday but it keeps popping up.

 

Was this made for 1 person?

 

Hey everyone!

Just to bring us back to the original game, here is a shot of the prize:



I'd also like to clarify that each member can only post one guess, but may continue to participate (if they choose) by continuing to ask questions as normal. If you would like to no longer receive notifications for the thread:

 

Does it have an animal on it?

 

I was going to ask you to post a picture, but didn't want to bother you.
Beautiful Coin! Thanks for contest!

 

Is the item related to the spice road or spice trade?
