there are hundreds of animal coins in the world coinage series, alot more than you would think, you have the panda (which comes out every year) the roo (which also comes out every year) and many many other coins from different countries that bears an animal, so there are plenty of animal coins to fill probably 2 or 3 books so that is a great idea I would think

I disagree. http://coinzoo.clements.on.ca/

Can't see how 600+ is not a lot as well as Daniel noting that there are 907 different circulated coins.

I have put together a quick first draft

Thus far it only includes one image- I plan on many more
any one wanting to see the first draft email me at rggoodie@coincommunity.com
and I will send you a copy to laugh at and make comments about.

I am not doing this for the money- I believe it would and should be helpful to the youth.

Oh man there are countless coins with animals on theme, I do think theme realted coins are very good Idea for young collectors,Think sports,history, military,horses running,ones withe flowers for the young girls ( not to imply that would be all they are interested in)that would interest my little girl..Tokens for example I have one with the boy scots on it,football(american style)and the other football(what we call soccer)etc

look on line, and you can find a whole lord of the rings cult. they mint there own coins, print books in the elf tounge, and a whole marage of other things. you can get great coins that are each hnd made for about $5 the makers will like the publecity, and the kids will like it for the film. hey, maby you can get a kid to read some classic lit. I shure enjoyed it when I was 12.

Hey lim! Do you have the gold ring on silver coin? My wife and I both purchased that coin as the gold REALLY leaps out off of the silver! Outstanding coin if I must say so myself.
If rggoodie had only started this when Harry Potter was first released as I had a connection in Great Britain sending HP coins that were made for a store promotion over there and it was really quite a set. I (we) managed to put sets together for the whole family and they even came with a bank passbook that was full on information. Really a unique set that is now long gone from the market!

How much is the 50 cents LOTR coins, lim?
My suggestion, have empty coin cards, they fill them in. Have information...I've seen one of them!

From memory I got the package of 6 coins from an ebay auction for $12.50. The coins were minted by The Royal Mint for New Zealand.
