<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2298893, member: 19463&quot;]Your specialty is in coins most of us do not collect.&nbsp; Since there are punchmarked coins from before and after the span of Greek/Roman but to most of our eyes they are a jumble of overlapping stamps it is unlikely we will do well with a test including those selected as tricky.&nbsp; Like TIF, my interests fall short of including the range of all coins.&nbsp; I collect some Indian, but not all; some medieval, but not all and even a few modern on a first grade level.&nbsp; My attempt at a date test was criticized as being too specialized (all Roman) but was possible for most who read Latin/Greek letters.</p><p><img src="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/quiz6.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><a href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/quiz.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/quiz.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/quiz.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>What background prepares one to recognize coin 6? Few here will ever touch a medieval Indian gold or a pre-Archaic silver.&nbsp; The others in this set were reasonable and I regret not doing better but spent 30 seconds on it since the rules forbade cheating (using books or searching the web?).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
