Article too long to navigate[edit]

This article will only continue to grow longer and longer. By splitting the article per decade of issued commemoratives, it'll be easier navigate. An example is List of accidents and incidents involving military aircraft.

Proposed splitting date ranges are incorrect. Should be 2004-2010, 2011-2020, 2021-2030 81.90.125.126 (talk) 19:51, 9 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thank you. I see it's been fixed already.

Points for improvement[edit]

Hi all,

A couple of points for consideration:

This article does seem rather lengthy and there are only going to be many more coins in the future: Would there be objections to split each year into a separate article?
Some image links need to be corrected since they're not pointing at the Official Journal but blogposts. Furthermore, are we linking the HTML and PDF version?
How about letting go of the few coin images still remaining?
