World coin collecting: countries, empires and changing designs

World coins offer an enormous variety of designs, denominations and metals, reflecting different languages, rulers, empires and historical events. Many collectors build a collection by country, while others focus on themes such as colonial issues, commemoratives, silver coinage, or a particular time period. Because designs and monetary systems change over time, world coins can also be a practical way to explore history through everyday objects, from trade and exploration through to modern national coinage.
