Have we ever had a "How far back" thread?

Hello, I am guilty of Forum Infidelity and on a certain other coin website, we have had some fun posting coins starting in the current year, then posting older and older coins without skipping any years:

I think such a game would be much more fun on Numista, with members from so many different countries and on a website that focuses on unique world coins (that other unnamed website has a strong American userbase so we see maybe too many American coins). Has a thread like this been done in the past? (Starting one would have to wait a bit, as I don't think there are many nice 2014 coins out yet - but the start of a New Year seems like a good excuse for this)

So far, the oldest established thread has gotten back to AD 1497, posting only coins that can be dated within one year, and without skipping any years!


I would like to see how far we can go back on Numista. I couldn't find such an idea in the "Fun threads" list, so I am asking here... maybe I am just blind to a well-advertized pre-existing thread on this.

I started one for you!

Well, I would like to work out the rules first.

I think it's good to have "one year per day", so that many people can post coins from the same year... this lets more people participate. A fast one-year-after-the-next thread is a especially headache for people in different time zones.

Does the picture have to be our coin specifically, or can we use the catalog image?

I would rather it be your coin specifically.
