http://www.baltic-course.com/eng/finances/?doc=57304 Latvian euro coins will have national symbols on them Nina Kolyako, BC, Riga, 15.05.2012.Print version Share Latvian euro coins will have national symbols on them, the business information portal Nozare.lv was informed by the euro project head Dace Kalsone. 120413_latv_evro.jpg After Latvia joins the euro-zone, the euro paper currency will be the same as elsewhere in Europe, and only coins will have Latvian symbols on them, writes LETA.
The topic title is a little odd, but then ... so is that article. Nothing new in there, and the coin design image that is shown on that page is "dead" anyway. Latvia still plans to introduce the euro in 2014 (see http://www.bank.lv/en/), but even if that actually happens, you won't see that monument on the coins but the CoA and the Latvian Maiden. Christian
