<p>[QUOTE=&quot;spiraltreet, post: 183440, member: 3476&quot;]Hello guys, I&#039;ve been thinking of posting a contest for a while. Just answer the following questions. You can find some of the answers pretty easily through search engines. </p><p>1. Which dynasty issued the first gold coins in India?</p><p>2. The decimal coinage was introduced in India in which year?</p><p>3. Which is the southernmost Taluk in Trivandrum district in the State of Kerala ?(this is the place where I belong to).&nbsp; </p><p>4. How many princely states were there in India approximately?</p><p>5. Who is the present Maharaja of Travancore?</p><p>6. Approximately how many different types of coins are in my Indian collection from 1835 to till date (Princely states not included)? I collect coins by type and not by year (but I do collect minor types as noted in the Krause). Also, I dont have much interest in the so called &#039;collector&#039;s coins&#039; or &#039;medal coins&#039;.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Contest ends on 15th January 2007, IST 11.00 pm.&nbsp;&nbsp; If nobody gives the exact answer, I&#039;d send the coin to the one who gives the nearest answer. I&#039;ll send the coin by Registered Air Mail from India to the winner&#039;s address.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
