Please add a type set for Saudi Arabia, circulation issues since WWII. Thanks.

Ali,

You may want to add Tonkin (1 year type and the only coin ever minted / issued for this protectorate) as a slot under Vietnam. Here are a few certification numbers: 2778035-001, 2778035-002, 3807866-013, and 2877229-001. The latter one is a piedfort (KM-P1).

French Reunion (or just Reunion). I have certification numbers for 1, 2, 5, and 50 Francs: 3352267-005, 3352267-004, 3499660-025, 2790239-010 and 3497631-019.

Thank you for your consideration.

Ali,

Thank you so much for finally adding French Cochin-China! It seems that it is still missing the: Sapeque, 1875K. Please add this to your list. Thank you. Quoc

Ali,

Request that French Indo China, 20 Cents be updated with the 1909 (Mule) KM-13. Thank you and keep up the good work.

Quoc

Ali,

Request slots for China, People's Republic, 2 Jiao 1980-1984, circulation issue be added to the list. Thank you. Quoc

Ali E.,

To be geopolitically correct, the list for French Cochin China should read as follows:

First, French Cochin-China should be listed before French Indo-China and not China. Prior to 1885, French Indochina didn't existed. When it was combined with the protectorate of Annam, Tonkin, Laos and Cambodia, it then became French Indochina.

Second, Democratic State of South Vietnam, 1953 is incorrect. The correct title should be State of Vietnam, 1953 (inscription on coins "Quoc-Gia Vietnam"). The reason for this was prior to May 7, 1954 (conclusion of the Battle of Dien Bien Phu and the Geneva Accord) there wasn't a "North" or "South" Vietnam. The French Vichy government in Indochina was a puppet for the Japanese, mostly running the cities and large towns, whereas the countryside was then controlled by the "communist rebel" government ( Viet Minh). After the Geneva Accord, French Indochina was then split up into three countries: Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam.

Third and finally, the coins (dated 1953) of the "Quoc Gia Vietnam" (State of Vietnam) remained in circulation in South Vietnam until the new coins (dated 1960 and 1963) with the portrait of Ngo Dinh Diem with inscription "Vietnam Cong Hoa" (Republic of Vietnam) was issued in the early 1960's. The communist rebel coins (dated 1945 and 1946) with inscription "Vietnam Dan Chu Cong Hoa" (Democratic Republic of Vietnam) remained in circulation in the north until of the currency reform of 1959 and new coins (dated 1958 with coat of arms) went into circulation.

Quoc

Ali,

French Cochin China 1875-1885 should be listed as the forerunner to French Indochina and not listed as "China---French Cochin China 1875-1885".

Also, under French Indochina, 50 Cents 1885-1946, circulation set, the date 1900 should be deleted as it was never meant for circulation. Those that are less than proof are in my opinion "mishandled proof". The set should only have the following dates: 1885, 1894, 1895, 1896, 1936, and 1946.

I would also like to request that North Vietnam 1958 competitive set with the 1, 2, & 5 xu 1958 added.

I look forward to having Vietnam 1945-46 (rebel communist), State of Vietnam 1953, and South Vietnam 1960-75 (republic) added to competitive registry in the very near future.
