My lack of Treasures made me very sad.
I picked up quite a few and thought, "Not bad!"
I Donated my junk,
Then saw that I was sunk.
I couldn't make a coin with what I had!

How many different Treasures, at most, could I have had in my deck without being able to produce any ?

Crown, HOP, Coin of the realm on tavern mat?

P-Stone too.

[AdrianHealey]

With very few cards then, yes.

Let's not count cards that are in special locations (Tavern, mats, set aside, etc.) - otherwise I could stuff every card in the Kingdom onto my Native Village mat then trash Native Village. So everything has to be in hand, draw pile, or discard. You can have cards in other locations but they do not count towards your different Treasure count. And you must not be able to produce no matter what combination of cards you draw.

[navical]

Potion, too.

With this gamestate, you could in principle recover at an average rate of $1 per turn....

You can always by copper, so you can always recover

Not when you have debt.

I shuffle an empty deck.  Why?

Given information:

You buy Annex to gain a Duchy, and choosing all 5 cards in your discard pile to not shuffle, "shuffling" the rest into your deck.

Didn't think of that.  There's at least one other way.

Donate. You trash everything including Feoda, Catacombs, etc. and then try to shuffle your hand into your deck.

If I'm getting how it works right.

[ThetaSigma12]

I find it funny that my Annex   answer got 0 respect while my     Inn    answer got 2.

[Awaclus]

I wonder how much respect would         Moat? get?

There is 2 empty piles. All the others have minimum of 10 cards. I've made only one buy and won on three-pile. No Haggler/Border Village on the board.

Solution 1: You bought a Masterpiece and overpaid enough to empty the Silver pile.
Solution 2: You bought a Doctor and overpaid enough to discard enough Tunnels to empty the Gold pile.
Solution 3: You revealed a Watchtower to trash whatever you bought and discarded enough Market Squares to empty the Gold pile.

Right!

[xyz123]

One of the two empty piles is Embargo and all 10 tokens have been put on the same card. You buy that card which also means you gain all 10 curses.

This puzzle is impossible unless you assume 3+ players, since otherwise there are only 8 Provinces and Provinces being out ends the game.

1. You bought Donate and trashed 10 Catacombs
2. You bought Raid with 10+ Silvers in play and only 10 Silvers left.
3. You Inherited a Ferried Hunting Grounds and bought one, trashing it with Watchtower to gain 3 Estates, trashing those to empty the pile.
4. You called 9 Duplicates.
5. 9 Talismans.
6. Villa, returning to your Action phase and playing 9 Workshops for Villas.

[TheOthin]

10 Charms is another option.

4-player game: I played Highway and bought Messenger to gain Ill Gotten Gains.

Another puzzle:
In the previous buy phase, there were 3 empty piles. But the game didn't end. Why?
4-player game, no Villa.
