Im sure this would get really complicated but as I was looking for what these coins were I thought it would be really cool to have a map showing where the coins are from. maybe using google maps or something like that then you could browse coins by location on the globe.

Well it would be somewhat complicated but not impossible.

Essentially what could be done is take a picture of the world or even regions and then outline the borders of each country. Then using an image map you could code links to query the database based on each country.

It would be worth looking into once we have more countries and coins in the database. Right now I'm not certain there are more than 20 countries with coins added into the database.
