BigCanadianM 0 Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Crap. So you mean literally, Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter, no riddles to it? Ah well. Will re do my guess later. Thanks for the contest! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gxseries 0 Posted August 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Yes, there is no riddle to it. It is related to ONE of the seasons. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

banivechi 0 Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 5000 Yen no date (1997) Nagano WINTER Olympics - I bet on Hockey player... Can I explain? - It is related to winter - It has no date -It is from Japan -I did not find it on Omnicoin (sincerelly... I'm too lazy now to search for it..) -Many people here are ice hockey fans. So, close right now this contest and send me the prize! :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gxseries 0 Posted August 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 Banivechi I don't think I can shut the contest down yet though. Â New hints up Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Graikos 0 Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 First Guess:A Ukranian 200 000 Karbovanets from 1996, commemorating the 100 years from the first new summer Olympics of 1896? Â Second guess: Here is a picture. Â Third guess (this must be it) Â Czechoslovakia 500 Korun 1987???? Â Two dates 1887 - 1987 Silver 24 g Winter Kids It does not appear in Omnicoin Artist: Josef Lada KM# 136 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gxseries 0 Posted August 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 That's the spirit Graikos - use all the hints!  Dustin, if no one wins, I'll start bombing more hints - maybe more than two per day if it helps. So people, you should refresh this thread more often! And if no one even got a single answer right, looks like I'll have to pick one that seems the prettiest so you might as well pick one nice world coin for me to check out  New hint updated. Now that should be a HUGE hint. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Graikos 0 Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 EDIT: This will not be my answer post. I'm still leaving it in as a reminder of my near breakdown because of this tough competition. Â Â Grrrrrr... This is making me craaaaaazy! I am thinking and thinking everytime I have a spare second. I just wanted to have a short, quiet break... but nooooo... you had to give out a new hint. Google is doing overtime since, as is my mind. Â Ok, one more try. Â 1 dollar of Niue Island with Vincent van Gogh's Sunflowers on it. I am not judging the looks of this coin, just trying to find the answer. So far we got... two dates (1853 -1890), a season (summery... sun... sunflowers.... summer), a famous piece of art that has appeared on a stamp and it does not appear on omnicoin. Â By the way... since this probably isn't it... here you can have a look at it. Â The only thing I couldn't find is the relation to the Russian coin. Â Grrrnargl... Â Â PS: Oh, are we allowed more than one guess? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
roaddevil 0 Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 i give up not changing my guess any more xD even tough its not the 1 xD lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dan8402 0 Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 If I had to make a guess, I would say that Graikos wins. I absolutely can't find anything else that even comes close to fitting all of the clues. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mila_cent 0 Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 How about this one ? ? Â Â Â oops! I see someone else picked this one . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gxseries 0 Posted August 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Graikos, you can edit your answers as many times as you wish  New hints updated. Tough isn't it? Looks like I'll have to hunt down some neat coins this week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Graikos 0 Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Oh, I see. Well, then please ignore my weird Van Gogh coin. I will edit my answers in the Olympic coin post. Â The new hints... sigh* Â got to get this riiiiiight! Â Â I have edited my answer with an Austrian coin depicting "The Kiss" by Klimt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gxseries 0 Posted August 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 I like that coin! Â New hints. Maddening isn't it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Graikos 0 Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 I know. Beautiful innit? Â Aaaaaah... more hints. I am a broken man! Pity on my soul. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BigCanadianM 0 Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Ugh. You are evil! Can you clarify the 'art' clue? Is it a painting? Or some other form of art. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
