<p>[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 48862, member: 669"]It's a good thing I didn't ID the "three" winners in my last post, as further examination of the answers shows there were only two - Sledneck and Pilot, who each correctly ID'd the coin as KM#31.1, a 5 millim from Sudan dated 1956 in Arabian characters. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Neither of them mentioned the double-dating, which included the 1376 AH date, but the contest rules didn't require it, so no harm, no foul. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Two people would have had everything right if only they had noticed that the coin had a scalloped shape, instead of the round shape of the similarly designed 5 ghirsh denomination. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Each winner should PM me with your mailing address, and your choice of three from this list: <ul> <li>1999 50 cedis, Ghana, Unc.</li> <li>1976 1/2 New Penny, Great Britain, AU</li> <li>1975 1 Peseta, Spain, XF</li> <li>2000 5 Centavos, Guatemala, Unc. or</li> <li>Heisei 3 (1991) 1 yen, Japan, AU</li> </ul><p></p><p>All five unsuccessful guessers had their names thrown in the same hat with the people who posted their interest in this thread, The name that rose to the top was Spider, so I need him to PM the shipping address for his 1956 British old-style large copper halfpenny and BE2500 (1957) Aluminium-Bronze 50 Satang (1/2 Baht) from Thailand.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
