Off the top of my head the ones I like most are from Mexico, Japan, the UK, Russia, and some of the Euro coins. Is there a source where I could just browse the various coins in regular circulation in the world? I started searching on Google, but I got a bunch of results for weird novelty coins from Somalia.

Not sure what counts as 'regular' circulation. But there's a Canadian 'toonie' in circulation that has a glow in the dark Aurora on it. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2017/06/27/canada-released-glow-in-the-dark-coin-150-year-anniversary.html
