What's your favorite coin from...

A little game.

RULES:

1. The first person names a country.
2. The second person shows (yes, a picture) his/her favorite coin from that country.
3. Then, the second person names a new country, and the cycle starts over again.
ADDED RULE: 4. After 48 hours, if no one posted a coin from the correct country, the original poster of the coin has 24 hours to post a new country. If he/she doesn't, anyone can post their favorite coin from any country and add a new country to get the thread started again.

Example:
Quote: "Person 1"Sweden



Quote: "Person 2"

Australia


Quote: "Person 3"

India


And so on. If you don't have a coin to post, just post a new country.

Okay, so I start:

Ireland



Kazakhstan
Alright it seems as though I may have picked a difficult country. I will change it to Japan.


But soon I will have a better coin from Japan.

Is it still Tunisia, or may I change it to, lets say, Germany?
If you want to change it we can. I thought Tunisia might bring about something a little different.

Estonia.

Well done, eminem.
Quote: eminem

Estonia.
Well no wonder!

So who has a nice coin from Eesti?
Hey, I just thought of a good idea, lets put the country in the native language. So:

Belgium = Belgie or Belgique

Germany = Deutschland or Deutsches Reich or DDR

Egypt = Misr

Hungary = Magyar

And so on.

What do you think?
sounds great^

Liechtensteiner munze?

I may have to help out... If nobody posts one in the next hour I'll show one of mine.
