Re: hardest to find coins
I live in Belgium, near Brussels. You come across a lot of different euro coins here. Of course ones are most common. That counts for the original, 2008 and 2009-2013 series. It proves to be quite hard to find a King Philippe coin. Thus far I have been able to collect the 50ct and 5ct coins. 1ct and 2ct coins should be in circulation as well but no luck so far. I actually managed to collect two different King Willem-Alexander coins before finding my first King Philippe. Overall , , and even coins are quite common finds here. Less common than that are , , and coins. So for I have come across only one post 2010 coin. I'm curious how it will fare with the new King Felipe VI coins. , and coins are quite rare here. , , , and coins are extremely rare here, although I did manage to come across some. I haven't come across any or coins yet. Neither have I come across any , (all four series), (both series) or coins (would be handy if someone could add those flags to the available ones as well). The only coin from these countries I found in circulation was a 1€ 2001 coin at the Côte d'Azure. Regarding CC's I have been able to retrieve the all but one (Red Cross 2014) of the coins, all but one (2013 Élysée Treaty) of the coins, most of the and most of the coins. Thus far I have found one CC coin in circulation here: 2005. I haven't found any CC's here in Belgium from the other euro countries.

In my experience, it is both neighbours and biggest countries which are easy to find. I am in Latvia.
So far, most coins I see: (obviously)

Also common:
So far I have all of them in all denoms, except obviously Finnish 0.01 and 0.02 which are now a rarity.
There is a solid amount of

Although San Marino has minted almost 1 million of these coins in 2010, it is still very difficult to find them in circulation!

Re: hardest to find coins
Fresh minted 1ct 2001 coin (from the only supermarket which doesn't round up/down )
Re: hardest to find coins
20c San Marino from circulation
Re: hardest to find coins
I recently got plenty of 5c, 10c and 20c from the Bank of Spain branch in Sevilla. I kept some for my collection and now I'm slowly putting the rest in circulation. You can come to Ceuta and try to find some! And, by the way, track some notes here, as it is the only Spanish province without any hits yet...
