I have been doing the same.

Not so far away...
Bit late this year - your reward for waiting is an extra tricky hard version

Same rules as always -
Simply PM me your answers and I will post the amount you have correct, send as many PM's with answers as you like.  To win if you have 10 correct answers we will hold a draw, if no one has 10 then the 1st prize goes to whoever has most.

Please do not post answers in this thread.

Last entry is 31st December 2018, after which I will post the prize (s) to the winner (s).

Good luck - as I say it's trickier this year

prizes this year....

Yes, trickier this year... No. 6 was particularly tough.

Thanks for a good mental challenge!

I found 6 of them rather fast and had expected to complete it by midnight yesterday but then the last 4 (1,2,8,10) came and 4 hours of searching didn't bring up much. Hopefully I will have better luck this evening.  Anyway great quiz as always.

[quaziright]

I got the word and just have to figure out one country. Else I'm done

[andyg]

I have an almost complete set of answers from Fosseway.....

As a casual collector and my attempt last 8 to 9 years went in vain of just identifying 1 or 2 coins.... too tough for me

All i got it number 4 in the above picture...

I only spotted the quiz yesterday, and I'm away from now until the new year so won't get an entry in on time.

Not that it makes much difference - if the deadline was next Christmas I think I'd still only have got two. 

Fiendishly difficult and quite beyond my capabilities I'm afraid. Hat off to those that have solved it.  Thanks Andy for your time in putting it together.
