<p>[QUOTE="John Burgess, post: 7663751, member: 105098"]What about a series of squares with the country in them and the circle cropped coin in the center of it? You could do that in a 5x4 grid and just country outlines not necessarily to scale with each other and title the square by country or coin or whatever you're trying to convey. I'm not a fan of maps. Like even the state quarter map books run into a "available space" issue and put them nearby instead of where they should be because then the map would need to be huge. That map is gonna look crowded and busy when you get to 20 on there.</p><p>Just an idea of another way to go with it. It's just gonna get more spacially confusing the more you add on the way to 20. I don't know where the heck you put the next 10 coins the way it is now before it's all just coins and hardly any map.</p><p><br /></p><p>Maybe like Stldanceartist suggests with a centered map and 7x5 frame of boxes, 7 across the top, 7 across the bottom and 3 on each side framing the map. Or 8x4. Ideally I'd think you'd want a way to expand it to 20 without having to reinvent the wheel each time to add a coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
