When you say circulating coinage...do you mean currently circulating? Or to have ever circulated. (Just wondering ...I have these anyway so do not need them) Good prizes though.
FWIW, it wasn't easy, and took a bit of research, but I learned a few things in the process. Even if I don't win, I still came out ahead.
