@dano picked the USA option: Prize C - the two quarters.
I want that one too, for my resurgent holey collection! But you could say that about most of H&C’s goodies.
I'll concur with 64, if not 65. That 11-sided border looks cool with the broadstruck rim.
Guess I should’ve chosen pieces I have never photographed or discussed online to base my quiz questions around. Other But other instant...
But much tastier. Coins tend to be a tad too crunchy.
@dano must have found some past old posting somewhere that I forgot to hide. If not, that’s an eerily accurate sixth sense! :nailbiting: Fair...
Usually I’d agree with you, but you might be surprised. And you probably didn’t see the post I already removed, which brought up events five...
Oh, heavens... the peer pressure is mounting... I suppose I shall have to do something about my “Fugiolessness” eventually... *sigh*

That is a very handsome circulated example. I actually prefer circulated Morgan dollars with that appearance to many Mint State pieces, for some...

Nope, that's not the answer for Question #1, though a Merc dime often is someone's first silver coin dug, and I've dug a bunch of '40s Mercs, so...
This. Looks perfectly natural to me.
Good guesses, and both were statistically likely, too. But neither one correct, yet. You may guess again after three other folks have posted...
You're supposed to guess, Sal. Where did you see my answers? Probably in the old thread I just removed. ;) (I'll reinstate it after this...
That's amazing. I'll bet it was a real adrenaline rush to pop that baby outta the dirt! I've only owned one Fugio- a "holey" example, non-dug by...
Oh- if you’re also a detectorist, after you post your guesses about my finds, feel free to also tell us what your first silver find was, or first...
This contest is now open. Side note/chitchat about my metal detecting finds (you don't need to know any of this for the contest): Question 1...
