[QUOTE="CoinGuy86, post: 772743, member: 22352"]Perhaps I was misinformed, I seem to recall somebody mention that it was a percentage of a Euro, but I also recall the same person was unsure to a degree. I think the initial information I was given was that it could be One Eighth of a Euro, but I couldn't be sure for certain. I also think the coin could possibly be Greek or Italian, likely commemorative although I have no prior coin knowledge, only what I have learned through skimming the internet about several coins that have ended up on eBay over the last few years. I've taken a few more photos with a better camera this time although I find it hard to get a clear enough shot. I would add IMG tags around them but they are quite big. [code]http://i47.tinypic.com/b7z12c.jpg http://i48.tinypic.com/3328b9z.jpg http://i46.tinypic.com/285yza.jpg http://i50.tinypic.com/sec2ew.jpg http://i47.tinypic.com/vrrjpk.jpg http://i50.tinypic.com/11vsair.jpg http://i47.tinypic.com/2w7li7c.jpg http://i46.tinypic.com/2agrajn.jpg http://i45.tinypic.com/oe4pk.jpg[/code] I have tried taking a closer look and on the "10 ECU" side on the edge it has Unione (I think) and then Europea next to it. Around the edge of the opposite side I think it reads "istituto pol****ico e fecca bello stato" The *'s representing digits I can't quite read 100%, I hope this is enough for somebody to provide further information about this coin.[/QUOTE]
