DCC: DEMA COINS COLLECTION

This numismatic site is an attempt to systematize the private collection of world coins: by names, countries and historical periods.

In essence, the DCC is a numismatic dictionary with brief data on the geography and issue history of each coin type.

In total, the collection includes more than 2.000 coins: 290 countries and 400+ coin names.

The main theme of my coin collection is: to collect coins of all times and peoples with as many names as possible: penny, cent, peseta, hryvnia...

It is impossible to collect all coins: no museum in the world presents ALL coins... But to collect at least one coin of all names — it is possible. It is very difficult, but there is a chance. I believe!

In my opinion, this is the most interesting topic for the collection of coins of the world: all territories and all historical periods are covered at the same time. This is exactly the topic I dedicate my collecting to.

Every coin shown on the site is in my collection.

/I apologize for poor English; my native language is Ukrainian; but I try not to make many mistakes/

I will be grateful to numismatists for advice and comments — find me in Facebook (Dema Yurii, Baturyn).
