I received a package last Friday that had 3 different commems that I had bought. (I did not post this in any other thread. So that will be no help. ) Your job is to guess at least one of them. I want country, date, and denomination. One guess per person until I respond. Then 1 new guess is allowed until I respond again.

Here is a clue to narrow down the choices: It is a 20th century coin.

Winner will receive some random circulated Russian/Soviet coins. And since this one is a tad harder, I will also throw in an unc 2005 Belgium commemorative €2.

Good luck!


***************NEW RULES********************

Guess the country that the coins are from and win some random circulated Russian/Soviet coins.

1 guess per person until I respond.

BONUS: unc 2005 Belgium commemorative €2
The person guessing the correct country will be allowed 3 guesses. If one of them is the same as one of the coins received, they will receive the bonus.

"It is a 20th century coin"

Let's see...that narrows it to at least 20,000.
How 'bout a continent?

ok I figured I would get my krause, close my eyes and just open it, so here is my guess

Hungary 1994 500 Forint International European Union

You're right, this will take too long. All three coins are from Europe, all from the same country, and none are proof. And since there were 3 coins, I am increasing the guesses to 3 each time until I check in.

I think it's about Russia.

maybe something to do with the Soviet Union?

Norway?
Denmark?
Sweden?

Gemany?
Italy?
France?

I really should read the entire post before I reply (Edited to put in guess):

Greece €2 1999

Greece €2 1998

Greece €2 1997

Nope. Try again.

Everyone is a bit cold on the dates.

gxseries is the warmest geographically.

Everyone has 3 new guesses.

1 Rouble 1981 Tereshkova (the rarest of 1 Rouble commems)
1 Rouble 1981 Soviet-Bulgarian friendship (also rare)
1 Rouble 1980 Tallin Olimpic Games (I am sure that you love this city)

Bah, shouldn't have given away too quickly

Oh well... I guess I have used up all my 3 guesses. Good luck to others

Banivechi, isn't the Tereshkova ruble minted in 1983, not 1981? :/
