Map View
Coins Module · Last updated Jul 31, 2026Availability
Map View is available on Premium and Enterprise subscription plans. On other plans the Map button is shown disabled with a lock icon; the World Map overview page under Geography is unaffected by this and remains available to everyone.
Switching to Map View
The Table / Map toggle above the results table switches between the results table and a world map view of the same filtered coins. Whatever filters, search terms, and status selections are currently active stay applied — switching views never resets your filters, and applying a new filter while in Map view keeps you in Map view.
The current view is part of the page’s URL, so a Map view link can be bookmarked or shared and will reopen exactly as you left it.
What the Map Shows
Every country that has at least one coin matching your current filters is coloured and carries a marker; countries with no matching coins are left blank. The total shown above the map (for example “1083 items across 158 countries”) always reflects your current filters. A coin whose issuing authority covers more than one country (for example a shared central bank) appears under every one of those countries.
Country Markers and the Item List
Hover a marker to see a panel listing every matching coin in that country — denomination and first year of minting, each linking straight to that coin’s detail page. Click a marker instead of hovering to pin the panel open so it stays visible; click it again, click a different marker, or click anywhere else on the page to close it.
For a country with a lot of matching coins, the list scrolls internally rather than growing the panel indefinitely, and is capped to the first 18 entries. A “View all N in table” button at the bottom of the panel switches back to Table view already filtered to that one country, so you can see the complete list, sort it, or export it.
Finding a Country, Zooming, and Panning
Use the Find a country… search box to jump straight to any country with matching results. Use the + / − buttons in the top-right corner or the mouse wheel to zoom, click and drag to pan, and the compress-icon button to reset the view.
Copying the Map as an Image
The copy icon button above the zoom controls copies the current map view — current zoom, pan, and colouring — to your clipboard as a PNG image, ready to paste into an email, chat, or slide deck. The icon briefly turns into a checkmark to confirm the copy succeeded. If your browser doesn’t support copying images to the clipboard, a PNG file downloads instead and the icon turns into a download icon. The exported image covers only the map area itself (country shapes and markers), not the filter bar or search box.
