Very cool. I like the map too, bet he is having fun coloring in new countries. Speaking of new countries, I see the DRC Democratic Republic of Congo is still white. I have a coin I would like to donate to fill this hole Won it in one of @lordmarcovan monthly contests a couple years ago. Its his if he wants it just shoot me a pm.
Me too.....did the 'lad' draw that Pop? If he did that, that's one devil of an artist too. So many 'too's'........
Haha no. That was a print from the internet. It isn’t 100% up-to-date since it is missing a few countries, south sudan comes to mind. But it works for what he is doing. I was trying to talk him into using he numista map online but he likes to keep things oldschool I guess lol.
@furryfrog02 good on you for teaching the kids right. I'm not so sure it's possible to have one all inclusive correct map to detail his entire collection. If it is a current map then all the current countries and their borders will be easy to outline. The problem is that the older, non existent countries will have no place on the current map. Conversely, if the map is an older map, Jr. will be able to fill in the older coins, but not the current coins. First world problems. Have fun!
I was thinking of also getting him a checklist of all the countries in the world so that he can check them off as he goes. Perhaps adding a section for countries that no longer exist as well as a place to add new ones as they crop up
