<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bart, post: 154909, member: 5580&quot;]In addition to what chrisild writes: in practice people use the terms &quot;cent&quot; and &quot;eurocent&quot; as they please, whatever the ECB dictates. As in the euro-zone no other currency is used, everyone knows we are dealing with &quot;euro&quot; and &quot;eurocent&quot;. At the moment there are no other &quot;cents&quot; in circulation.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, as a collector of world circulation coins by type, I get the eurocoins out of circulation. This is possible for most of the coins of the 12 original membercountries. The only coins of those series I have bought were the 1 and 2 cents of Finland. At the moment it is a challenge to find the commemorative 2-eurocoins in circulation.Of these coins, the Greek Olympic coin and the 2 Belgian commemoratives (2005:Belgian-Luxemburgian Economical Union and 2006: Atomium) were the only ones I found widely spread in circulation.</p><p>About the mini-states which have currency unions (Monaco with France; San Marino and Vatican City with Italy): it is almost impossible to find those coins in circulation (for the Vatican it is even totally impossible, as they only issue those coins in sets). Nevertheless, I got the Monaco 1 and 2 euro through a friend who encountered them in circulation.</p><p>Are you interested in some? I certainly am interested in the new NewZealand series.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
