Cool collection idea

It looks like you've got all the biggies listed already. Are you just doing kings? I think I saw a duke or rajah or two in there? If not there will be plenty more for you in the old Indian states.

But one bit of advice I'd suggest: start out with the home countries. For example, get a type set of Great Britain before worrying about all the colonies and commonwealth countries. Those can seriously derail you. Also a lot of the colonies can be pretty expensive in nice grades, like Eritrea and DOA.

I collect coins only with the king/queen/duke/prince head, for the start I'm looking for the cheap coins at least in F condition, up to 10$.
Some coins I have and they are not at the list.
