one from each country could probably be better described as one from each 'coin issuing entity' as there are multiples from countries like china and russia, but only after major political shifts (ex: monarchy->communism->republic).
I do NOT count multiples from regions like the Italian or Austrian states, or chinese provinces (only 1 entry from all the combined states or provinces), so I figure 250 is doing pretty good!
I think I can get to 260 relatively inexpensively ($20 each or less) but after that the really hard to find countries start hitting the budget pretty hard. 275 would be nice, 300 seems impossible.
