    My turn to host a competition so here goes.

    Hope we can have some xmas fun. Enjoy yourself, but remember that your answers must be serious and accurate in order to count. All winning posts must be unedited and correct according to the judge, who is me. :)

    The competition is to correctly answer three questions.

    All prizes posted free of charge by little old me.

    The first person to answer fully any one question correctly gets a coin (small silver pre dec).

    The first person to answer fully any two questions correctly gets a coin (small silver pre dec).

    The first person to answer fully all three questions correctly gets a 1 oz silver coin (will probably be canadian wildlife series).You are only allowed one guess UNTIL I write in the thread any correct answers. Then you may have one more guess until I write in the thread again (and so forth).When I have written in the thread you may guess again. I will probably only be writing in the thread once every day or two so guess wisely.

    Guessing all answers in a post is allowed and highly encouraged.

    Question 1.

    Below is a picture of my baby. Guess his weight in 1 kg silver bars (whole bars only) and 1/20 au coins.

    So if you think he weighs 1.3 kg you need to write 1 silver bar and 193 gold coins.

    assuming 1/20 au coin has a mass of 1.55525g

    Question 1 = kg silver bars 1/20 oz au coins

    [​IMG]


    Question 2.

    [​IMG]

    I have taken a picture of a coin/bar/round. However being a Kluts I used my new microscope on 2000x magnification.

    Please provide me with the year, country and name of the coin/bar/ round. (Now I want the issuing country not the country of the mint(so if you think Perth mint minted this coin for France the answer would be France))


    Question 2 = year country name


    Questions 3.

    [​IMG]

    I have taken a picture of a coin/bar/round. However being a Kluts I used my new microscope on 2000x magnification.

    Please provide me with the year, country and name of the coin/bar/round. (I will accept fairly generic names and spelling is not a big issue.)

    Question 3 = year country name




    If anybody has correctly answered any part of the question I will update below so keep an eye out for my edits. (Remember you need the whole question correct to win a prize.)

    Edited again for clarity.
