    Hi all. Earlier this year (or late 2018), I saw a beautiful coin which commemorated a milestone anniversary for a certain European Mint. Something about the design attracted me and I told myself I might buy it one day. Unfortunately, I can't remember the country, nor the anniversary year! That's where I need your help. I know it was a European Country's mint. I think it commemorated the 225th or 275th anniversary of that mint. The design shows the building (presumably of the mint), surrounded by other quaint European buildings within that city. All in all, I found the design attractive - so much so that I can't remember what's on the other side. If you know the coin I'm alluding to, please let me know. I tried googling all sorts of possibilities but have drawn a blank so far. Thanks.

    Well, I know it can't be the Monnaies de Paris (France) because it was founded in 864 AD.

    The only one that comes to mind is the 275th anniversary of the St. Petersburg Mint in Russia which was in 1999. @JeffC

    @cpm9ball, @tommyc03, Thanks both, but nope - it was a silver coin and the anniversary was just in 2018 or 2019.
