The contest is over - Congrats to "thedeadpoint"


The serialprovider today, is a 10 Yuan 2005 I brought back from China

[attachmentid=2564]


CLUES

The format of the serial is as follows: AB 345678910

First 2 digits are letters that form the webaddress extension for a European country
(example: BE = Belgium - www.webaddress.be). The countryname is 7 letters long.
2 digits are the same more than once.
The Sum of the digits combined is 25
No 8's OR 7's
The note does not start with DE
The note does start with FI - should help a little.


Every day a new clue will be added. Some will be useful

RULES
Everyone can post their guess once a day, and every day at noon eastern standard time. I will tell how much out of 10 or right. Please do not edit your postings. Post a new one every day, so others can use the guesses as extra help.

PRIZE
The person that guesses the serial gets this banknote, and a 1934S Half.

Good luck!

Regards,

Darryl

Well, I can't stay away from these!

Just for clarification, is that an 8 or 9 digit serial number_

i.e

A B 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 (10)

or

A B 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 0

Thanks.

I found another online and it looks like they have 10 total digits. 2 letters followed by 8 numbers, like
AB 12345678

Correct me if I'm wrong Darryl.

Edit: Deleted because it double posted...

With that said, my guess for day 1 is:
DE 27121543

Edit: I don't know why it is double posting...is there any way I can delete these 2 posts?

That's correct, 10 letters/digits total

AB3456789(10)

Good Luck Guys & Gals

That's a great strategy, Next time around I am going to try it on purpose just to see how it works out.

Like I said, it will really help as time goes on...

No Problem on the edit - you can change it right up to post time as long as you do not copy someone elses answer.
