If you look at the two screenshots below, they were taken with the mouse hovering over the same country.

 

 

Would it be possible for the info box to show all countries at all times and include a zero value? So the first screenshot would say…

 

Belarus: 0 coins

Soviet Union: 0 coins

 

and the second would say…

 

Belarus: 0 coins

Soviet Union: 1 coin

 

In a similar way to when you have coins from them all…

 

 

This would make it easier to track missing countries, for example if my collection had more soviet coins with some of them available to swap it wouldn't be possible for me to filter the map in a way that lets me see I am missing Belarus.

 

I leave it for others to argue over if my second example should be listed alphabetically (like I have) or by number of coins owned, or even by date of last relevance, since some countries like the Soviet Union or Czechoslovakia no longer exist.

At the bottom on your ‘My …’-pages you have ‘View the country list with my collection quantities’ then ‘Show countries: from which I don't have any …‘ there you get a list with all your missing countries.

I'm not sure it would be realistic, as some areas on the map are associated with hundreds of coin issuers. Displaying all of them would be overwhelming.

This doesn't display them graphically though.

Hundreds of issuers from the area of one modern country? You may well be right but that seems unlikely.

 

I could be way off but isn't there about 1000 modern and about the same ancient? I admit Greece may be a bit crowded…

 

How about if it was an optional setting from a tick box in the filters section, and if you added a filter for “ancient, modern, all” that would help the Greece situation? Just throwing ideas around.

Hundreds of issuers from the area of one modern country? You may well be right but that seems unlikely.

Germany has 2404 issuers, France has 564 issuers, Turkey has 346, Greece has 295, Italy has 282, China has 150, etc.

With ancient states, medieval states, and notgeld issuers, the numbers add up quickly.

I fear either the map would be overcrowded, or the functionality would have over-complex options.

I think we are overthinking this. Just list the current issuer and any former issuers that one owns coins from.

 

Example:

 

Belarus

Soviet Union: 10 coins

 

or

 

Cameroon

French Equatorial Africa: 1 coin

French Cameroon: 1 coin

This seems a nice approach.

I just had this exact same thought and was coming back to voice it and you had beat me to it!

I do think though that once other issuers are added it would be beneficial to add the “0 coins” for clarification. So for example…

 

Belarus

 

Is fine on it's own, but as soon as another issuer is added it should be…

 

Belarus: 0 coins

Soviet Union: 10 coins

 

I think it is just clearer, thoughts?

 

One stage further (Don't think I'm over keen on this one myself)…

 

Belarus

Belarus: 0 coins

Soviet Union: 10 coins

 

This just highlights the current country name as distinct from it's issuers but I'm not a big fan. The only place I think this would be an improvement is for the banknote example where you could have…

 

United Kingdom

England: 3 banknotes

 

Because there are no “UK” banknotes so keeping the country/territory name at the top is then different from the issuer. I'm not sure it's a big enough problem to worry about though.

Belarus

Belarus: 0 coins

Soviet Union: 10 coins

I think this would be the ideal solution, especially with your British example.

Hello,

 

This is implemented 😀

This is implemented 😀

Like it! 👍

 

Now I see it especially in the order it is in (I assume chronological), can we have the current modern country name at the top without the link? So your example becomes…

 

Belarus

Soviet Union: 41 coins

Russian Empire: 13 coins

Belarus: 0 coins

Hi

If I may add something extremely not-important here. How about showing like 15+ lines and not just 8 & ½ as it is currently adopted with countries where user possesses more than 8 coins from different historical periods (at least for computer users, 8-9 is probably enough for mobile devices).

And secondly, at least for specific periods within certain state (e.g. German Notgeld) it would probably be more convenient to have specific “issuers” listed in alphabetical order.

Thirdly, at the right border of the map, display cloud is automatically shrinking by width. Can this minimum width be wider?
