Sterlingcoin has always been "From the UK" and always will be.

Personally, I use many country coins. None of which I reside.

I think it's best to think of country coins and the use of these country coins as 'support' for that country and more so that culture. Not to be confused with the imaginary lines of borders governments and fiat want to paint vividly in our minds. This said, country coins are more about destroying these imaginary lines and not trying to reaffirm them.
