<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Burgess, post: 8219857, member: 105098&quot;]the original statement &quot;collecting a set of at least 1 coin from every issuing Country and/or Territory for my birth year of 1981.&quot;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>there will be some that are quite difficult. like was said Siberia doesn&#039;t get much out of there, Cuba would be another one. And not all countries produce their own coins either, Like New Zealand uses a couple mints around the world to produce theirs.</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;issuing country&quot; might be quite a task, they all have some sort of coin. I think the number is 193 plus vatican city and palestine... 195 ish that are U.S. recognized to some extent, while theres like 251 countries UN recognized. and heck there&#039;s probably even more than that. there&#039;s 254 recognized flags lets say....</p><p><br /></p><p>As the saying goes it&#039;s your baby, you can raise it any way you want to.</p><p><br /></p><p>Heres a list of mints around the world. it&#039;s a starting point. there&#039;s like 100 mints worldwide, some come into being after 1981, so maybe 90 if you wanted to do an example of a coin struck at every mint in the world in 1981 set. it&#039;s still a daunting task though. </p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mints" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mints" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mints</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
