This is in honor of my 2000th

Thought I would start to showcase my current One From Every Country (OFEC) from the years 1900-2000. I would include coins from countries that do not exist anymore. I would want to share five per day up until I get to my 234 countries I have currently out of 282 in the Krause catalog.
I am not seeing too much on CCF about this direct topic, so I guess I will start a direct thread

Looking forward to more items! OFEC is an interesting challenge, though there's usually a lot of tricky holes to fill towards the end.

I hadn't done a specific period-oriented option but maybe I should; I'd basically need to rebuild what I want to focus on from the ground up (now that I'm basically forced to only work with relatively modern coinage if I want to avoid getting tangled up in antiquities laws), and OFEC had always interested me... though admittedly it might often be hard choosing the one coin to feature.

I did the same thing twice.
OFEC 20th century and then again for coins dated 21st century.
There's an Every Country Collector Group that has a checklist you can download and edit to fit your collecting interest.
My 20th C starts a little different if the OP is intended to go by alphabet.
My Argentina is a little farther down:
Abyssinia
Afghanistan
Albania
Alderney
Algeria
American Samoa
Andorra
Angola
Anguilla
Antigua
Antigua and Barbuda
And then Argentina

Of the A countries, I do not have yet:

Abyssinia
Alderney
American Samoa
Andorra
Anguilla
Antigua/Barbuda

My set is intended to be in alphabetical order but might have slight differences from others since I am using the Big Book, the Krause catalog from 2009 (but I need an updated book)
