If in doubt, pick the word you haven't heard of, since there's no other reason for it to be there. Poor quiz compilation.

The modern cardboard version (known as a sleeve).... So how is sleeve not the answer? They didn't mention the original in any capacity until the explanation!

#27 Sheath is also a correct term in British English: Shetah noun 4. the protective covering on an electric cable

Jacket is also correct in US English. That was a bad one.

the ridged edges on a coin aren't to make the hard to counterfeit. That makes it obvious if some shaved the edges off to collect precious metal. Back when they were made from metal, you could take a millimeter off and it would still pass as a normal coin. the ridges make that visible.

Came straight to comments before I even tried the quiz. Uscentric, again, never mind, it's not as if it'll matter!

It's a technicality but 'milled edge' refers to the milling process that creates the ridges or 'reeds' on the coins, so 'milled' is the process and 'reeded' is the effect it creates.

It doesn't make the American version of the words "wrong" just because you use a different word for the same item in the UK. Neither word is "wrong". They are just different terms for the same item. Not "wrong".
