<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1928928, member: 39&quot;]Sure - those pre-euro coins and notes cease to be legal tender when a country introduces the euro cash. In Germany that was more than twelve years ago, and since then there has been hardly any reason for accepting such old money. My point was that, contrary to what Morgan and Walker (nice names indeed <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ) claim, there is <i>no &quot;law&quot; here</i> which would dictate whether a store accepts old or foreign cash.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, even in those member states where you cannot redeem the old cash any more, many coins were not returned. Would be nice to have more precise figures (ie. what &quot;remained&quot; of which denomination, year and mintmark) but that we do not know. From a collector&#039;s POV, though, I would not really worry. Still plenty around, and at least over here prices of pre-euro coins have not really gone up ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
