The1943 5 cent coins were struck for both Suriname and Curaçao (incidentally, in San Francisco).

Faroe Islands issued some coins in 1941, same design as the Danish coins that had been struck before the war. Those were all one year types IIRC.

Every coin minted in San Marino from 1972 through 2001 was a single-year issue. And not just a few denominations - 7 every year! 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 Lire, plus non-circulating commemorative 500 Lire, gold scudos and scudi, etc. on a less regular basis. Good luck trying to collect them all! In 2002 they began minting Euros, which had less interesting designs and not changed yearly. Here's a 1975's 50 and 100 Lire.

Hondo I have 30 of those coins from San Marino, but didn't show them, as none are standard circulation coins. All are commemorative, well according to Numista any way.

The description for them on their Numista page is Circulating commemorative coin, although under the pictures it says Commemorative issue. San Marino has a population of ~ 30,000, but they had the Italian government mint 831,000 50 Lire coins in 1975. I looked through all of the Numista pages and couldn't find any "circulating non-commemorative coins" listed for that period, so it seems like they circulated.
One thing I learned from looking at all of those pages is that many are made of "Acmonital (Acciaio Monetale Italiano or Italian monetary steel) - a stainless steel alloy consisting mostly of iron, with 0.14% carbon, 17.5-19% chromium, 0.50% magnesium, 1.15% silicium, 0.03% sulfur, and 0.03% phosphorus by weight. Acmonital was used for the Italian Lira coins." (Wiki)

Yes, there listing is a bit confusing. I used a acmonital coin in the 20Q game a while ago. I think it was new to them. Can't remember if I won that round or not.

Monaco and San Marino are great places for single-year issues!  This aluminium-bronze 2-franc coin was issued only in 1926. A similar coin was issued in 1924 but had extra lettering on the reverse stating that it was only redeemable until December 31, 1926! |
