<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ddddd, post: 8066006, member: 22377&quot;]I&#039;m more open to moderns (even some from Niue, Palau, etc) but I agree with you that I prefer these that are unique to the countries. Besides the Russian example (part of their Lunar series-which isn&#039;t something you really associate with Russia), the others all feature some aspect that is emblematic of the country.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the Ukraine (mentioned this on the thread for it), it&#039;s actually one of the first I had from this set but I just got to posting it today. I bought it at an ANA show (I&#039;m fairly certain in 2014) and Ukraine actually sent reps there (so it was almost like acquiring it directly from the mint).</p><p><br /></p><p>The Ossetia one is more of a fantasy piece (where the Transnistria is semi-official-it&#039;s a commemorative that can technically be used) but I still thought it deserved to be included. Other fantasy pieces that I saw, I excluded because those weren&#039;t really disputed territories by my understanding (for example, there is a series of Russian North Pole fantasy coins).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
