    In my copy of Hartill 15.160 on page 123 is a round bronze coin Yong An Yi Shi, rarity 0. Now I see, 15.170 on page 124 is the iron Huo Bu. I do not need typos to be confused by Chinese. Mine is so obviously the ordinary 9.30. Thank you. 0ch09-30.jpg

    (But also sad to see the awesome Chinese coin go down to defeat. Great coin and a stellar deal, TypeCoin! Plus I learned a lot from the writeup.)

    When going into this round, I knew there was no way that I could win the “eye appeal” category, so I went for “bargain” and “historical interest”. As soon as I saw the word “Brutus”, I knew I was done for.

    Well played @Jay GT4 . Well played.

    Our national anthem is super boring and too long. Should definitely be replaced by this. :beaver:

    You Canadians and your gloating :rolleyes: rowdy Northmen :p:cool: jk

    Another fun match comes to a close! Thank you to both participants for fielding such excellent coins and amazing write ups.

    Results
    #15 @Jay GT4 - 111 Winnner
    #31 @TypeCoin971793 - 54

    TypeCoin fielded a great bargain coin with a fantastic write up but it wasn't quite enough to down Jay's triumvir denarius.

    Jay will advance to face the winner of the @Cucumbor vs @BenSi match up in Round 3 with the winner of that match guaranteed a medal and a place on the winner's podium. Good fun!

    It all comes from our inferiority complex due to our <grits teeth> OK, I admit it, more important southern neighbour. :oops:

    Whoa whoa whoa Sevy have you been drinking? You better edit that post before the rest of team Maple Leaf sees it :eek::wideyed:;)

    lol in all honesty the Canadian banter has been a highlight of the tournament for me so far. You are just lucky team USA's best trash talker (@Nicholas Molinari) didn't match up against team Canada this year...
