<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 650064, member: 19463&quot;]Sub themes: Countries that no longer exist, Smallest/largest denomination actually issued for spending, Obsolete coins of countries that still exist (British Farthing, all the pre-Euro units), Selected dates important to that country&#039;s history, All countries issuing coins the year you were born bearing that date </p><p><br /></p><p>Opinion:&nbsp; Gather what you consider the most significant coin from any particular country.&nbsp; If you feel the most significant accomplishment of the US is the space program then make your US coin one that shows the moon landing.&nbsp; If you feel the biggest contribution Spain has made to the world was Columbus, select a coin of Ferdinand and Isabella.&nbsp; Obviously, two people collecting in this way will have very different collections based on their individual opinions.&nbsp; For example, I will not collect any coin that was never issued at face value because these are, to me, not coins.&nbsp; Others will want all proof commemoratives.&nbsp; My US coin might be a 1964 Kennedy half (last 90% silver) or a Walking Liberty half from my birth year.&nbsp; I wish it could be a 1793 dollar but lets get real.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
