+keewee Posted March 28, 2011 Author Share Posted March 28, 2011 So, to recap some facts... - coin is not a New Zealand one - mamoreb is correct: Ummm... If I did the math correctly, the coin is either antique silver, shiny silver, foggy/satin silver, antique gold, shiny gold, foggy/satin gold, antique bronze, shiny bronze, foggy/satin bronze, antique copper, shiny copper, foggy copper, nickel or black nickel ... or some other rare metal. Or maybe I should list all possible two-tone combos? Thanks a lot, that hint really helped. Not that I expected more on the first day. - it was a coin in my collection prior to my pause from collecting in sept/oct 2008 - it is not at/near the end of the alphabet - the metal/finish is not a silver variety - the coin was released in 2007 - there have been lots of guesses of geocoins with the first letter as this one - one person has guessed the correct coin edition, but not the correct specific coin - the coin is not black nickel (new hint) - I am a bastard Quote Link to comment

+Scarlett_Ohara Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) I had a blast, being I am so new at this it gave me a way to look up and learn some and have sooooooooooooooo much more to learn Also I relized by trying to look up info on geocoins there isn't a centralized website of history. what coins wre made what year, hom many, what metals, ect.. i don't know if it's possible but for new people like myself it would be an amazing learning tool. Thanks again i had fun trying. Edited March 29, 2011 by Scarlett_Ohara Quote Link to comment
