<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 203035, member: 39&quot;]Such a 2 lire coin dated 2001 can only be from an opened set; they have not been issued for circulation since the early 1980s. Many countries that now have the euro did exactly what Drusus wrote - they phased the minting of circulation coins out in the mid/late 1990s. (Again, except for annual sets and commems.) Germany for example issued its last DM circulation pieces in 1996. Not sure about Italy, but a 2 lire coin would have been worthless at that time anyway ...</p><p><br /></p><p>(Oh, and why is this in the US Coins forums? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> )</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
