We get also an historical perspective with:
J. de Fontenay (Manuel de l'amateur de jetons - Dijon - 1854) :

The Duke of Burgundy died March 8, 1712, leaving the legacy of the throne to the one who had to be Louis XV. The Duke of Vendôme passed away the same year, and Louis XIV followed on 1 September 1715, with Europe being calmed by the Peace of Utrecht. France had fallen under a regency. In 1724, the king is now an adult so it is at the vault of the heavens that the sun appears to animate a sundial.

Republic of Vanuatu! They only got independence in 1980 - countries that got their independence late are always hard to track down.

Mutawakelite Kingdom of Yemen! It's a good thing it was labeled when I bought it or else I would have a really hard time identifying it.

I know it's not a coin, and I know it's not really a country (with circulating currency).
But I've just received an Antarctica 1 Dollar.



Fantasy money. (What's the paper money version of a token?)
But nevertheless, a nice centenary commemorative. 1911-2011

Will go well with my Bristol Pounds!

Hello all,

my latest "country" is this France Feudal,Ardennes Chateau - Regnault.Double Tournois Francois de Bourbon Conti.





I had it long time, but was tempted to sell it or to keep it. Now I decided to keep it. It is this coin here:

https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces54025.html   Now I have 259 "Countries"  :)

Rwanda-Burundi. Yes it's listed as a separate country by Numista. From 1916 until 1960 the territory used the Belgian Congolese Franc and from 1945 the coins actually bore the names of both Belgian Congo and Rwanda-Urundi. This is why Rwanda-Urundi should not be listed as a separate country as those coins are the same currency as the Belgian Congolese Francs of before 1945.

After Congo gained independence in 1960 Rwanda-Burundi had its own currency until Rwanda and Burundi became independent from Belgium in 1962.
There was a special status for the Ruanda-Urundi :


But anyway, Numista follows the SCWC

got my first Bohemia and Moravia coin, it was lacquered but I can live with this and it still looks good for a zinc coin  :)

Frenchlover, you are completely right. My point is: Rwanda-Urundi used the same currency as Belgian Congo, but before 1945 this wasn't mentioned on the coins. SCWC knows a lot about the U.S. but little about 'foreign'.

I mean, the French West African coins that include the name Togo aren't separately listed either. Same situation (in both cases former German African colonies)
#230 - Katanga with this coin

https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces6915.html
Also, I just got my first coin from German State of Prussia. It is not my first coin from German States but it is my first coin from the State of Prussia.

https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces13338.html
Mombasa, basically British East Africa Protectorate but from 1885 until 1895 it was administered by the Imperial British East Africa Company, which went bankrupt.

It is often said that the Europeans drained Africa for its resources, but actually most African colonies were loss making endeavours.

Few exceptions were the Dutch who shipped slaves from Ghana to the Americas. Guess the Belgians ran Congo quite profitably as well.

The Cook Islands is the last one added to my collection. They use the NZ$ as their currency, with a few local issues. (It makes the counter get to 100.) Still no coin from New-Zealand itself though.

Thanks man,The whole West Indies cut and counterstamped series are awesome, i find with them the uglier the better. This is not a black dog though because of the O underneath its a 2-1/4D they are the same cooins but the Annulet up-valued it.

thiis is definately the ugliest coin im proud to own but then at the other end of the scale i just got the Brunswick- Wolfenbuttel coins 3 at the same time this being the best example.

I added Straits Settlements and French Somaliland by coincidence: I had a bid on a 1823 Farthing and decided to add two more coins from the same seller. Eventually I was 'last second' outbid on my Farthing, but nobody cared to raise the stake on the 1919 cent: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces5688.html or the 5 Francs (1948): https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces5164.html.

It is an 11.5mm coin, so zooming into it makes it look uglier than it really is.

Thank you erdvilla, I got myself an early birthday gift.nice central american republic, most of taken along time to find one. I have only seen pic of them.
It is, what it is, or is it.
These are my current goals:



Good thing is that most are divided by areas, America being the "easiest" at the moment, I am missing few from Africa so that is also a good option, and there are the Emirates but those are expensive and I really don't like them that much because of the repressive nature of those states, but I have coins from many other repressive and Human right violating nations just like the Emirates, so I'll eventually get over it. Besides it is not like I am buying directly from them. Europe has the most but Asia and Oceania have some difficult ones.

Does: What is the most recent country to leave your collection counts? Seems finally all French Antarctic Territories coins where moved to the token section of Numista  :~  For being fantasy coinage.

I hope they do the same for some of the countries that I don't have yet, like:

  • South Sudan
  • Northern Mariana Islands
  • Hutt River
  • Cocos Islands
  • Araucania & Patagonia

Please move those to the tokens section to be fair.

The older plastic Cocos Islands tokens are in my catalog with KM numbers.  So I assume that means they circulated enough that Krause decided to include them. ( https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces27785.html )

Hutt River certainly needs to be moved.  Also Sealand.
