May I extend my jealousies?  Greenland is one of the coins I really want to get for my collection.  :)

Do add this coin to my collection?

My first international eBay purchase was for one of these coins. You just don't see too many Greenland coins down here in Australia...

I'm still trying to get one of the Ivigtut Cryolite Mine tokens. They're listed in Krause, and they not only look cool with a polar bear coat-of-arms, but the story of Ivigtut, cryolite and aluminium is both interesting and numismatically relevant.

It was very hard to find. Fortunately, There's a local dealer here, who specializes in world coins, and keeps the unusual ones aside for me, knowing he's got a sure sale.
