Apart from the Canadian, Indian, South African, Australian sovereigns, are there any other coins with those specifications?

Has anyone created a collection of these?

I am collecting, although not very advanced so far. 

Apart from your list, I know of: 

2 Rand ZA; the elusive Burgerspond ZA; George VI (1952) and QEII (1953-60) and the Springbok from ZA; Greek and Cypriot collector items from the Euro era (several per year but high premiums), Lesotho from the 1960s, one from Israel 1960, Suriname, several Channel Islands issues, Cayman Islands, Malta, the Saudi Aramco 'lid', and quite some more. Not sure which ones are/were legal tender and which aren't. 

If you want, I can make a more detailled list.
