More proofs than circulating coins?

I've noticed that a lot of the Pacific nations really focus their attention on collectors.  They all have boatloads of commemoratives.  The Cook Islands is a really good example, they only started issuing coins in 1972 and yet they've issued something like 800 different coins.  Also some of the coins they actually minted for circulation they had more proofs issued than actual coins intended for circulation, like the 1973 coin from this one https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces4164.html or the 1974 copy of this one https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces4153.html

Any other countries that aim their coinage solely at collectors?

  Maybe not solely, but nowadays these produce all sorts -
Liberia, North Korea, Turkey, Belarus, Isle of Man, Thailand, Kazakhstan, Poland, San Marino, Ukraine.
Maybe also Somalia and Latvia, and Canada is mentioned in the reply below.
 Choose any of those countries and go to say 2010 of their pages on here.  
Which is not a complaint as I like (and have got) some of what they produce.

Canada.

Should stick to lumberjacking and ice hole fishing eh?

Here in NZ it's starting to get that way too, we seem to issue coins every time a movie is filmed over here.  Lord of the Rings, Chronicles of Narnia, The Hobbit, etc.  Plus they issue a new bird coin every year, and I believe they issued a few for the queen's jubilee.

Most of Africa, but more worryingly, I think the UK is starting to verge towards that, but perhaps not to such a serious extent. I hope that the US and Switzerland at least can remain aloof from this.

The uk is fine,  the proofs are good but look at the set tony has just bought the commems are all circulating but for the £5.

Euro countries too!
Just 10 coins maximum by year, the rest for collectors!

It's really annoying for me, because I only collect circulating coins from the Pacific countries, although I do keep the commemorative ones if I get them in a big batch.  But I see all these nice silver commemoratives and it's really tempting to pick up a couple, but I know if I do I will end up trying to get them all, and that's a battle I can't win.  As I said, the Cook Islands alone have produced something like 800 different coins.

Don't worry about it Neil, I don't specifically look for them but if I find a bargain like in my last 2 instances where I got the Australian commonwealth $10 and the mauritiuse 25 rupees then so be it

I do collect the circulating commemoratives like the Australia 1954 royal visit florin, the FAO coins from the pacific and various other circulating commemoratives I've found, like this one https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces12519.html

But it's ones like this http://www.trademe.co.nz/antiques-collectables/coins/pacific-islands/auction-606346661.htm that really tempt me.

I can understand I guess, its a nice one, I still don't have that florin either "/

There's a guy on trademe that sells them pretty cheaply now and then.  I think I picked mine up for about $8, and that was at a time when $8 was about the value of the silver content.

keep an eye out for a nice one please neil :)
