Fr Pac Terr brings the 21st C collection to 214.
If there any missing perhaps someone here can name them?
I relied on the country listing in Krause at the time of making the collection of one coin per country strictly for the 21st C.

Just added country #125 by finding a coin from Bosnia & Herzegovina, again underneath a Coinstar-type machine:

Mine is from 2021, the final year of issue.

Well, I only have 86 countries (from 98 Issuers) at the moment (according to Numista) But I have only entered 324 coins to account for this. I have lots more coming in and many more to add to the list as I go through them.

Some of my older coin cover a few different countries (in Africa) and I'm planning on back filling the modern countries

I am challenging myself on my OFEC set from strictly the 1900-2000 era, and mainly using my Krause catalog from 2009.

Currently I am up to 244/282 countries in my set, and a few more scarce to rare countries to obtain so far...

One more thing is when I find an upgrade to the same country I replace the coin, so this set has picked up considerable value over the last few years. I could and have thought to add the additional years 2001-2020ish as I have obtained several different countries from those years.

Good work, both.

I have less than 60 represented in my spreadsheet. I have some work to do.
