Quote: "Camerinvs"​Can someone explain why the monograms of the 1935 and 1936 coins say GRI and ERI instead of GRV and ERVIII?

​(Also side note @ngdawa: The ERI is for Edward VIII; no New Guinea coins were issued during Elizabeth II's reign! She was never an empress, because India became independent in 1947; but if she had been, then her Latin title would've been "Imperatrix".)

Quote: "sc.rednek"​Shouldn't Persia be next, not Peru?

​​Originally I wasn't going to include the ancients issuers, since usually nobody posts for them; but I realise quite a few people are going to want to show their Sassanid drachms and whatnot, so I added Persia for tomorrow.

Quote: "phfoticus"​One possibility for ancients is to do them at the end, maybe in three days -- Rome, Greece (etc.), and other.

​2017 - 1 Redneck

Quote: "Camerinvs"​I wonder what percentage of those coins ever got to the shores of Pitcairn. I suspect less than 1% ─ or more accurately, less than 1‰.

Quote: "Camerinvs"​Yes ─ closer to 0% than to 1‰. I suspect that coin collecting would be a great hobby in such a place and that a few of the Pitcairn inhabitants would be interested in owning coins issued in the name of their remote archipelago.

Quote: "CassTaylor"​​​I pity the coin collector who lives on Pitcairn, something tells me there aren't a lot of dealers there.

​A lot of NCLT issuing countries (except the big ones like Canada) usually have the private mint they contracted to make the coins provide them directly to dealers; this is especially true for CFA franc countries like Côte d'Ivoire. I doubt the NCLTs they issue ever even actually go to the country in whose name they are made in.
