Micronesia coins

I'm trying to get a coin from every country, however Micronesia is giving me trouble. They use the US dollar now and I can't find any previous coinage that was legal tender AND has the name on it. They don't mint collecter coins like many other countries, and the only ones I can find are all fantasy, like the one pictured. They have an ancient stone currency called rai stones, but they are incredibly rare, expensive, and illegal to export. I seem to have hit a wall here and am looking for advice. Should I just bite the bullet and get a fantasy coin, or is there like some obscure colonial coinage that I'm unaware of? Thanks!

1991 Swiss 20 Rappen Proof Coin?

I was going through some Swiss coins I got and found this 1991 20 Rappen appears to have a frosted or higher relief head of libertas on the obverse. Curious if this would be a proof coin. 1978 “flat” for comparison.

mint marks

I am looking to collect coins from every sovereign mint that was operational in the 20th century. I am wondering what countries have different ones. i know Germany had a total of 9, Britain, Australia and the US have multiple ones. I am having a little trouble because some countries have multiple mints, but no mint marks, or 1 mint name with different marks
