<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scottishmoney, post: 1726627, member: 12789&quot;]But in Germany they never had a 20 pf or 20 cent coin until the Euro.&nbsp; There was a the very brief experiment with 25 pf coins ca. 1909, but they were about as popular as the 4 pf coins of 1932.&nbsp; I remember in the DM days thinking it was curious how the coins skipped from 10 pf to 50 pf with no 20 or 25 pf.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is unusual to do a switch over from one to the other, but Ukraine did it in 1996 with the 25 kopiyok coin - previously in the USSR there were denominations of 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 50 kopeks and 1 Ruble.&nbsp; There were a few 15 and 20 kopiyok patterns made in Luhans&#039;k but the plans for those denominations were quickly dropped.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.scottishmoney.net/rossiya/images/sssr151929.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Talk about a weird denomination.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
