[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 116961, member: 669"]In another forum a member (probably with his tongue firmly in his cheek) posted that he felt like a numismatic failure, because he had never completed a set. That comment made me think about one set that I have completed. There are a number of different entities listed in Krause for occupied territory coinage, including the Meng Chiang Chinese coins minted under authority of the occupying Japanese forces for the North China area known as the Mongolian Borderlands. I am proud to say that illustrated below is my 100% totally and fully complete collection of each, every and all coins minted throughout the entire Meng Chiang realm in the course of it's short and little noticed history. :high5: Did I mention that it's finished? (Animation of someone patting him/herself on the back would go here, but in all my smiley researching I've never found one.
