Update on the guesses

64 BC skildude
257 AD Balveda
1878 Chris
1921 John McLeod
1949 Mike

Skildude's guess is to low and Mike's too high. I do have coins from 1949 and worthless paper money from 1921.


Pluto will always be a planet to me.

Time for another hint.
James and Miep are in the right century. Anyone care to change their guess?
