NEED IT!
If you are a collector or dealer and can help with this list, it would be greatly appreciated. Generally, I am looking for brilliant uncirculated examples of everything, but in the case of rarer coins I would be happy with circulated examples having nice eye appeal.
Please note that the animals listed below may not be accurate as I do not research the coins until I acquire them and put them online.
If it is not displayed in the Coin Zoo, and not on this list (and it is a circulating coin) then I don't know about it! Feel free to fill me in. (Note: My expected inbound coins are listed at the bottom of the spreadsheet.)
