<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sylvester, post: 5234, member: 708&quot;]I just don&#039;t like the euro as a rule.The thing i really really hate about it is the fact that coins from different countries all have to have the same obverse (although the reverses are different) they all have to have that map of Europe on them... talk about assimilation. I can only hope we never join.</p><p><br /></p><p>And yes i do collect European coins, mostly British stuff from the 17th century. Anything with a king on one side and a shield on the other and i&#039;m there!</p><p><br /></p><p>And GD&#039;s ducats captivate me, not quite as well as the Austrian ones, but you know...</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t like standardisation, i think variation is a good thing, the euro is too standardised for my liking. Although i&#039;m sure i could get to like the odd design, i must admit i really don&#039;t like the Netherlands stuff. Looks far too modern for my tastes, typical stereotypical conservative Brit here, if it was good enough for my great great grandfather...&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Sylvester.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
