200.000!

Last year in 2020 predictions thread (https://en.numista.com/forum/topic89373.html), I've predicted that we are going to reach 200.000 coins in 2020. It took 11 months of hard work and WE'VE DONE IT!



I would like to express my gratitude to all the referees and contributors and see you in 2021 with 250.000

Kudos to the team​

A big thank you to all those, old or new members, who enlarge the catalog and give us new coins.

Wow good!

Is it possible to know which is the coin #200.000?

Citeer: "Turi"​​Is it possible the coin #200.000?

​I believe it’s this one: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces200000.html

No, in this case we've already had 250000

I have this coin:

https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces251679.html

which is an even higher number.

Great. That means that I have only 0.025% of all the coins registered on Numista.

Does anyone know the very first coin registered on Numista?

​Ok thanks stratocaster and Idolenz.

Citeer: "ellemerob"​Great. That means that I have only 0.025% of all the coins registered on Numista.

Can you explain how you've got that number? I think you've made a capital calculation error.

​Can you explain how you've got that number? I think you've made a capital calculation error.

​Yeah I think I did. I got the number by dividing 5000 by 200,000. The answer being 0.025. I realize now that 5000 is 1/40th of 200,000 and 1/40th is 2.5%. Forgive me it was early.

2.5 % sounds a lot better, right? Although that might be not completely correct either. Those 200,000 coins are in fact 200,000 types. Your 5,000 coins in your collection on your profile are different coins. Unless you've only added 1 coin per type, that 2.5 % is not correct. To know the exact % you have, you have to divide the amount of different types you can see on the "My coins" tab by 2,000.
How many different coins there are in our catalog (= the amount of all year lines), I think only Xavier knows, but I think that's gigantic.

You also might need to subtract all 21528 exonumia items and a sizeable chunk of the 40000 tokens depending on your definitions.

​Yes 1 coin by type. I only collect by type.

Citeer: "Idolenz"​You also might need to subtract all 21528 exonumia items and a sizeable chunk of the 40000 tokens depending on your definitions.

​Therefore as I don't collect tokens or exonumia, my percentage of actual coins should be higher again. It would be 5000 coins as a percentage of 140,000 coin entries which is 1/28th = 3.6%

I'm making progress. Thanks

Citeer: "Grinya"​No, in this case we've already had 250000

​The reason for this is because a lot of coin pages has been deleted and merged during the years, so the page numbers are no longer correct.

I think 24000 banknotes are also a big factor, I guess the itemization numbers have the same pool.
