I agree that there are some realy neat pics there, but it is kind of hard to
navigate the site if you don't read Russian.

I recently read that Krause will be offering the newest version of their
"Unusual Coins of the World" in June of this year, last published in 1992.
If anyone gets a copy, I have one coin that was supposed to go in there
that I'd like looked up -- it's a spoof of the East German 10 or 20 Mark
commems that makes fun of the police state. It was likely issued in
1989-1990. Instead of "Democratic Republic" it reads "Demoralized
Republic" in German.

I wonder if it will include any of the Clinton Quarters.

Clinton quarters are so old school. We've moved on to California & Hawaii:

(Of course when they wear on the high points, the whole effect is ruined.)

I like teh b00bies on the California and Hawaii ones, but the Arizona
one is a bit of a stretch. Wouldn't a more appropriate Arizona image be
an old couple in a golf cart?

Thanks for the link. This appears to be a company (private mint?) in
Liechtenstein that mints medals and calls them coins. Am I wrong here?

No, these are actual coins from countries like the San Mariana Islands,
Liberia, etc. The company itself is one of those executive service firms
that can locate the strange and exotic to fit expensive tastes.
(Try saying Liechtenstein three times fast.)
