I am currently in a swap with someone, and when I receive the coins from them, I will have coins from 100 countries! I know that I won’t actually have coins from 100 countries due to how numista does things (Eurozone, East Caribbean, West Africa, and the Soviet Union all have several countries under their belt, some of which I don’t have a coin from besides the coin from that union/economic union), but I still think it’s pretty nice and it’s a goal I should celebrate.
Did you know that Pluto is still a planet in Illinois and New Mexico and has de facto recognition as a planet in Arizona?
One country I won’t have anymore after the swap will be Tuvalu, but I am getting a coin from Czechia as well, but as I don’t know which one, I couldn’t add it to the map yet, but I’ll still have 100 countries

Very nice, It sounds like you got quite a start with that coin, as much as I would have loved to have had it I feel like you came out on top here :)

Thanks, that Tuvalu coin you have was very nice, but collecting silver/gold coins are not really my thing (mainly because I don’t have the money for it; I bought my Tuvalu coin at a yard sale for $5, and it was after buying it that I discovered it was silver)

Oh wow!, Incredibly lucky find!
I lie to myself and think "it's not spending money, it's saving money" every time the shop puts a silver coin in my face, but the truth is I just really like pirate ships and have no self control and on that day I was allowed to go to the coin shop unsupervised.
That's part of why I'm getting into the world coins, I caught the bug on some expensive silver rounds, but I can't continue to buy those but I do enjoy the collecting aspect.
Speaking of collections, are you still needing Isle of Man? I pulled this out of the bulk bag I'm picking through currently, I am trying to save any commemorates but I have about 9 Isle of Man coins already and I don't know that the Manx sports series is high on my list of wants so if you want it it's yours, just if you find any FAO coins or anything with a sailboat or animal on it that you dont' want one day maybe send it my way :)
