<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 498140, member: 39&quot;]This Italian one (ha, I have that too! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ) was designed by Maria Carmela Colaneri; she also designed the 2005 (Constitutional Treaty) and 2006 (Torino Olympics) €2 pieces. Very interesting, but also very &quot;full&quot; - which in my opinion is a stark contrast to the almost empty ring. Seems to be fashionable these days to put the Stars of Europe, and only the stars, on the ring ...</p><p><br /></p><p>By the way, others mention her &quot;horror vacui&quot; too: <i>&quot;Le sue monete si distinguono dalle altre per il fatto che a lei piace mettere in moneta il maggior numero possibile di elementi, anche se talvolta le capita di esagerare.&quot;</i> <a href="http://www.mebnet.helloweb.eu/maria_carmela_colaneri.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.mebnet.helloweb.eu/maria_carmela_colaneri.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.mebnet.helloweb.eu/maria_carmela_colaneri.htm</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Hehe. Now the German State Twoers are certainly different in that each state is to be represented by one building. So MCC&#039;s method of &quot;putting the maximum number of elements possible on the coin&quot; (see above) would be difficult here anyway. But there still are differences - the 2007 piece (MV) is fairly full while last year&#039;s coin (HH) had a huge blank area. The one that comes next month will be &quot;middle of the road&quot; so to say.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Right. Sixteen euro-stickman pieces. <img src="http://www.cointalk.org/images/icons/icon13.gif" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> (Or twenty if you want all mint marks.) I suffer, I suffer ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
