I want both the uncirculated and proof versions but I would really love a collection of proof gold coins from all over the world. While I know that this is the U.S. coin forum, I would like your help in figuring out some of the low mintage coins from that year that would be really great to pick up. So just to be clear, I'm not just talking about U.S. coins but from everywhere around the world. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 01/04/2017 1:25 pm The Red Book would be a good place to start; you can get an older edition for practically nothing, and every edition after 1996ish would have 1993 covered, at least for the sake of a checklist. A P&D mint set and silver and regular proof sets are a good place to start. You can get all of that on ebay for probably less than $30. Other than that, I think there were commemorative half and dollar coins (I don't know those well enough to recall offhand), plus the bullion as you mentioned. Are you looking for everything worldwide from 1993, or just precious metal? Report this Post to the Staff

Theo1123 New Member United States 38 Posts	Posted 01/04/2017 2:55 pm I'm looking for everything worldwide. I figure most of it would be cheap and easy and would be pretty cool to assemble all together. Report this Post to the Staff
JimNWLincoln Pillar of the Community United States 906 Posts	Posted 01/04/2017 8:41 pm Good way to learn some world geography along with any political change for countries with coinage in 1993 that are longer with us. I have started to collect world coins in my birth year with a focus on copper coins (I like copper) and with designs that appeal to me. I like US wheat cents, so it is interesting to see pennies & cents from other countries. Good luck with your collection. Report this Post to the Staff
