Glad to know that you have 100% by type and going to cover 100% by mint year..

I'm trying to do the same with Cayman Island coins, but I'm a long, long way from my goal.
I'm focusing on circulating issues exclusively though as there are quite a few commemorative that can get pretty expensive and just don't have the same kind of history.

Yeah it's the same with decimal Fijian, that's what I'm also working on, quite a bit to go with that though. The stupid thing is that I have all the tricky to get pre-decimal coins. I've got the low mintage silver, the low mintage pennies and halfpennies. It's a few of the more common 3d, pennies and one cu-ni florin that's standing in my way. They just haven't been for sale.

I troll the online auctions and pick up bulk lots. I usually get a few coins from each lot and then sell off the rest. I usually get my money back or make a profit from the coins I don't need.
