Euro Zone.
And the worst coin issue i would say it was the 1961 soviet union.

Agreed! I show in the thread  https://en.numista.com/forum/topic2633.html  the two I have - one is a reproduction, and the other is a rather large one, which I am still not sure what it is for/from.
 Also - thank you for what you wrote in the 'Coin from Ukraine' topic   

The UK has the best overall coin issue. A plethora of designs, all beautifuly engraved. Even our daily circulation varies from year to year, and predecimalisation we had different designs fo the different countries with made up the Kingdom. This year the fifty pence coins are being produced in various designs celebrating next years Olympic games, and they are so sought after by the public at large that very few remain in circulation for long!

You can keep your awful Euros thanks <g>

I'll take just about anything with Vicky on it.  I also have a 1935 Crown. St George slaying the dragon is certainly a cool design.

For me the best world coins are ones that depict something interesting about the issuing country, not just a person's head or a coat of arms.

The silver bullion libertad of Mexico is a simple elegant lovely image.
Also, can't forget the beautiful voyageur of Canada:

have a bunch of beautiful coins in may collection,
has nothing to do with countries. To me, all the
merit goes to the engraver and the subjet,
I find my ships and boats magnificents.
Chasinva, le voyageur takes me to the
inmensity and silence of Canada.

Agree with Matt, Euros are ugly

yes, this is what a good coin design should do. It should evoke something special about the country that shows some imagination and artistry.

I find most european, american and english coins over rated and boring. Although the modern danish coins are not bad. I don't post picks, they are on this site already.
