    12.


    Luxembourg is clearly visible on the coin (in Luxemburgish). :D

    If it's any consolation to you I got 7. If the Spanish coin didn't have "espana" printed on the back I would have achieved an almighty score of six.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,382 ✭✭✭petes


    I suck at that game.

    The only one I'd not seen before was the Austrian one but it's the Luxembourg and Dutch ones that nearly caught me out as they are appear almost as mirror images of each other. There is also a new German one out now I think I saw recently without the eagle on it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,073 ✭✭✭✭Kintarō Hattori


    12 too, but I work in retail and reckon I've seen them all at some point.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,820 ✭✭✭Femelade


    i totally sucked at that..i hadnt a scoobie doo!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,649 ✭✭✭Catari Jaguar


    I got 5. I knew Greece, France and Spain cos of the writing and Ireland. Guessed Germany and I never even thought to link Da Vinci to Italy or Mozart to Austria.:rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept

    I also got 12, though I worked in a shop one summer so saw a lot there :)
    Only ones I've never seen in real life were the Luxembourg and Finland ones, but the Luxembourg one was easy!

    Lol, if you look really closely at the top of the screen you'll see "AIB Kids". Saying that though, I'm still playing it :D

    To be honest, I had to guess with the last three, but I'm pretty chuffed. My great relationship with the euro involves me spending it faster than I can earn it, if I dwelt on it long enough to figure out where it was from I'd get attached - that'd be a bad thing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,032 ✭✭✭Oman


    12:cool: TOO EASY


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    i got 4


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,191 ✭✭✭Unpossible


    If i saw them as close as you guys have seen i would have got 7 or 8
    clicking on he coin and it gets a bit bigger.


    I got 12, but I had to go by logic; greek writing, Mozart, italian artist, what "looked" portugese and reading the names. A few I knew instantly (like finland) :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,626 ✭✭✭Stargal


    10. Finland and Portugal thwarted my would-be perfect score.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,485 ✭✭✭Thrill


    I got three.
    I'm not surprised though, as i never take any notice of them other than a quick glance at the number on the coin or its size in relation to the other coins i happen to have in my hand.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,474 ✭✭✭YeatsCounty


    12, but I collect them. If it wasn't for my familirity with the coins, I would have gotten 8 or so.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 458 ✭✭juliuspret


    I got 10....some were a pain but through elimination and more time most people would get most correct!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,708 ✭✭✭ciaran76


    I got 12.

    Easy easy easy !!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,279 ✭✭✭DemonOfTheFall


    Got 8. Was pretty much going on associating the pictures with the countries, like da vinci with italy. hadnt seen too many of em.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,909 ✭✭✭✭Wertz


    Got to 8 before I started guessing and picked wrong. Knew 7 of those 8 and greece was an educated guess.

    Them all, by guessing which looked like it came from which country. Haven't seen a lot of them before but some are so obvious.
    Like Germany for instance.

    I got 3 and gave up because any guessed aren't really gotten per se.

    Btw, where's the British one? Oh I forgot they're better than us...
