Give and Take, a Trivia game

@camlov2: So are you saying that you will be picking the 'best answer' you get from within 24 hours from posting your question, but that you will not necessarily be taking the right answer, plus you will not announcing the winner(s) until after 36 hours? So I basically have no chance at this question since all it takes is any 'best' (guess) answer? Even if someone else can find a more correct answer after 24 hours?

Krispy... taking another contest way to seriously.

 

Nah, just exploring the definition of the rules to ensure my own accuracy, if it's worth waiting to post an answer this time around, and in this case, whether I have an additional chance to beat the odds by gaining another entry. I feel it's not a 'contest' if we don't set and follow rules to be fair to all involved. :thumb:

it will be the best answer from all 36 hours (hopefully it is also the right answer).

lets pretend that the best answer is 4 people.
The first person to post the bill that shows 4 people is the winner. (if this happens before 24 hours you wouldn't be able to win)
If no one posted an answer with 4 people then you would have the opportunity to do so after 24 hours.

Since I don't know the correct answer I will wait until 36 hours have gone by before I look at all answers to see who found the most.

 

I agree with following the set rules. That is why I allowed cubenube to post more than one answer, up to that point I hadn't clarified that you only get one answer per question.

 

Thanks for the clarification to my question. Crosses-fingers for another chance... :smile

 

Well at first I thought it would be the Educational Series...it has what 5 people on it.
Then I remembered the vinette on the $1 Fr18-39 Washington note that has 8 or 9 people on it.
But I thought a bit more...
There is a MPC, I think it's the Series 681 $10 with a chopper on the back that has 6 soldiers coming out of it. But that is not enough for this...
$10 Jackass has only 7
And there's that cool Bugs Bunny style back of the $100 Franklin Fr 1072 with only 5 people
There are numerous Obsoletes that have many people on them but I digress.
Plus the Back of the Mellon Charters looks to have 8 or 9 also.
Then if you get into the older chartered Nationals there becomes packs of people like the $2 lazy duece 1st charter with I'd guess 9 or so or the 1st charter $50 that looks like a prayer scene of @19 people which is also on the back of the 10k note Fr 1135. The $100 of that is another scene like the $2 you disaproved so I will not pick it either
But my pick will be the Fr. 1132 $500 note from 1918. It is a war scene and looks like 29 people if you allow for Christ that is on the Cross.

 

I'll give you Christ as both 'son' and 'holy ghost', we could discuss the role of anti-Christ but not in these forums.

 

Well I cannot edit as per the rules so I'm stuck with it now. And I'd think you'd appreciate the rule following

 

Right no edits. The whole ghost thing is debatable anyways. :smile

 

You never mentioned but do you like my note?

 

It has that distinct Heritage black background...

Darn...should have clipped it a bit more.
or as Maxwell Smart used to say "I missed it by that much"

 

Uh...is that me your Groaning about?
If so Opps.
I thought you were talking about The great Krispy of Oz...the all knowing..the (well you get it)

 

Please don't groan at me. I wasn't in question about what Duke and I were chatting about. I am not all knowing, just attentive and quick with links, providing info, etc. Anyone could do the same. :bow:

 

Anyone with ADD, a 6 pack of Red Bull and some of those recalled Phen Phen pills
You are Krispy of Oz to me

 

Well, I don't juice... I leave that to the sporting "Pros" :rollling:

The Wiz is organic and green all the way! :thumb:

 

I will hazard the guess that the 5000$ federal reserve note of 1918, the reverse depicting Washington resigning his commission has the most people represented on it, I see at least 38 people depicted.

editing the post not to change my answer, but to provide a link to a pic of the note, so others may see, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:5000b.jpg

 

Forty (40) is the most people depicted on one side of a U.S. note.

This applies to Fr-424 through Fr-439:

National Bank Notes, Original Series and Series of 1875 $20 ("First Charter Period")

The back of these notes depict, The Baptism of Pocahontas engraved by Charles Burt for the American Bank Note Company, New York. The engraving was based on the John G. Chapman painting by the same name, The Baptism of Pocahontas commissioned on February 28th, 1837 for the U.S. Capitol Rotunda. On November 30th, 1840, Congress purchased the 12’ x 18’ canvas for $10,000.

The so called 'Pocahontas Note' does not actually depict an accurate life representation of Matoaka, Daughter of the Algonquin Chief, Powhatan, but there is one known engraving that was done during her lifetime in the year 1616 when she was approximately 21 years old. She eventually married John Rolfe and was Baptized as Rebecka Rolfe.

There are 39 figures (possibly 40 using the original painting) depicted in the central vignette with 1 standing Native American figure in the smaller vignette to the left side of the note. There is even one disembodied arm swinging a saber above the figure on the left, which was not tallied in my count for the most people on one side of a note or coin.

$20 1875 Fr. 431 The National Security Bank Ch. # 1675, Boston - MA.




---> Further information about this note:

The face of this note depicts another 11 (or 12) people, one of whom lays slain in the foreground of the left vignette. The vignettes on the face of this note are, The Battle of Lexington (left) and Columbia leading a procession (right).
