Nice one bro.......Hmmmm you tried with fourth riddle...BC means before Christ was born.At the time when the coins were supposedly made,no one knew exactly when Christ was going to be born in order to place 39 BC on the coins.In addition,the modern system of dating the years AD and BC was not begun until 500 to 600 years after the dates on the coins......Also for the second Riddle,don't you think the sisters could have been born in different years?......GRATIAS

Good try.....but for the sixth riddle it is most certain they weren't playing against each other.They were playing other partners.
