<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wiggam007, post: 1796731, member: 18436&quot;]Here is my suggestion:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Even we when look at and study world or ancient coins, how many people, except for the people who truly take the time to research them, know how the actual coin denominations work together.&nbsp; There is the obvious of say, a crown and then half a crown, but how does that work together with the penny and the shilling?&nbsp; Or in Indian coinage, the anna and rupee. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What I would suggest is a series of problems like what would be given in a grade school to help kids learn the denominations (i.e. you have two quarters a dime and three pennies and need to pay forty-six cents for a bill, what combination(s) of change could you give?&nbsp; What would you get back?&nbsp; What is the combination which would give you the smallest amount of change back?). </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The problems can start easy and then throw in some real doozies to separate the field.&nbsp; It would force people to research new systems of coinage and actually learn how they fit together.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
