Ætheling Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 BPCI 2010 is open and voting has begun, currently in Round 1 we have Groups A, H, I and P up on the election podium. Nearly a page full to vote for, with a wide time and geographical spread. To add an extra twist, however, I liked like to offer you all the chance to take part in the prediction challenge. There is no prize except the knowledge that you have exceptional taste in coins. There are 16 Groups (A to P), in these early rounds coins in each group will battle it out amongst each other to be the winner of their group, hence the top 16. Your task is to predict which of all the fantastic coins those last 16 will be. Be sure to submit your list before the 14th May! Group A Winner - Group B Winner - Group C Winner - Group D Winner - Group E Winner - Group F Winner - Group G Winner - Group H Winner - Group I Winner - Group J Winner - Group K Winner - Group L Winner - Group M Winner - Group N Winner - Group O Winner - Group P Winner - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
