	It was really cool to see all these different coins, but I think the quiz either needs less time or wrong answers enabled. As it is now, I would have had enough time to type "penny" "nickel" "dime" etc. for all the ones I didn't get on my first pass through the game. (If you do enable wrong answers, maybe tell us all the possible denominations, so people know that some of the obsolete denominations are included.)

	A great quiz for a coin collecting nerd like me! I love how you included old and obscure denominations as well.

	@Chair Sadly, you cannot enable wrong answers on image quizzes. If people want to keep guessing, that's totally fine with me. I mostly wanted people to see the beauty of old coins, and if you can guess that there was a $3 coin, more power too you. I wish I could have used the ever unpopular Twenty Cent Piece, but you cannot tell the difference because that obverse design looks exactly the same as the quarter, dime, etc from those same years.

	Beautiful quiz! I love US coins. When I was in the states, I received a 1943 'Steel Lincoln' cent. It had the appearance that it could be the rare genuine cent, but it attracted itself to a magnet faster than the sinking of my heart.

	@gloucester How did your heart sink? The real Steel Cents do attract themselves to magnets ya know!

	@myb555 - It looked as if it could have been one of the rare 1943 copper cents since it is heavily discolored, but the magnet proved otherwise; wishful thinking.

	That shield nickel, half cent, and 3-dollar gold piece stumped me! A great game. I'm a coin collector, and it's still a bit of a challenge... there are so many different denominations (you still have the options of putting up the 2.5, 5, and 10-dollar gold coin denominations). 5 globes! ...And I'm favoriting your game.

	@Scotsmenrule Unfortunately, you cannot use the 2.5, 5, 10 dollar eagle coins, because they used the exact same design on all three and you couldn't tell the difference between them.
