The main fantasy coins I have are those listed as "micronations" in the online Numista catalog.

This coin was once in the Numista online catalog as a real coin. New information from the Nauru website indicates that this coin is unauthorized, and the coin has been reclassified as a fantasy issue in the Numista catalog. Nauru -- 5 dollars, 2016:   Edited by pepactonius

Nauru -- 5 dollars, 2016: Correct. Nauru has never issued any official coinage; I still have the e-mail I received from the Justice Minister of Nauru confirming this. The "Bank of Nauru", the alleged issuer of this coin, went bankrupt in 2004 and was shut down by the government and never reopened; Nauru currently operates on a purely cash economy (using Australian dollars) and no banks operate in the country at all. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

Here's one where the Krause catalog classifies as a real coin (KM #1), but Numista says it's a fantasy: Shawnee Tribal Nation -- 1 dollar, 2002:   |

Another coin similar to the Shawnee Tribal Nation coin. Again, Krause lists these as valid coins, but Numista classifies them as fantasies. Creek Tribal Nation, 1 dollar, 2004:   |
