Ok, you guys are making my head spin. LOL. The next thing you know you'll be posting a coin from Zamunda.  . (Hint: Eddie Murphy) On the serious side, thanks for the geography lessons. I have been wondering; did you know of these more obscure countries/regions first and search for the coin or learn of the countries/regions due to finding the coin?

Playing this game makes me look at maps closely, and I look up unfamiliar countries to see if they have minted coins. Also, when someone posts a coin from an unusual location I try to obtain one.
