2- Germany and the USA
0- I collect by type and the most coins of one country is 170.
0. I collect by type. The closest would be San Marino - 384 different types.
ROMA AETERNA
I also collect by type except for the 2 countries mentioned above.
0 as well; I collect by type also and the closest is 270 in the UK
At the rate that I get new coins, the US side of my collection should exceed 1,000 specimens by 2021.
For actual coins, 1 - Hong Kong (because I use them in circulation) but for collection, 0.

None. As I also collect only by type, it is going to take me a very long time to get to 1,000 from one country.
If I include all Russian listings as one country, then its 541, but if this is not allowed, then Isle of Man is top with 481.
Still around 30 years of collecting to get my first country with 1,000 coins
I'm just a collector of coins, not a slave to it, unless I am in a coin shop.
For all you banknote collectors. Link to my swap list.

I once held on to 1885 1, 2 and 5 cent coins most of them from Germany ... if that counts (8
None in my collection : I collect only by countries and adding up the Bengali coins it makes up to 402 coins.
I have 1395 Australian coins in my collection (I have a few pre decimal ones but mostly, 98% Decimal).
I also have 1014 USA coins in my collection.

I collect Euros and I know they are lots of different countries but because I collect them as Euro's, I think of them as a particular type of coin and I have 2308 of them.

My other version that I collect is British decimal .. have not got a thousand yet ... only 589.

If we consider Russia as a single country (from Empire time till now) I have more than 1000 coins. I add coins with different mint marks to collection so it is hard to estimate the exact quantity excluding this feature.
The same with Germany. From states time till now (incl. euro) I have more than 3000 coins but it includes coins with different german mint marks (up to 8 for some coins under empire period) and notgelds (less 500).

Less 1000 but more than 800 coins are from Vatican (incl. Papal state) and Australia.
None. Closest is Sweden with 808 coins.
Three; UK, US, and Germany
None. I'm primarily a type collector - I don't focus on any one country so much that I'd reach anywhere near that kind of numbers.

USA and Germany. I do have over a thousand tokens, but 95% of them are from either USA or Germany as well.
