And above Mount Triglav (on the 50 ct coin) you see some stars connected by dotted lines. These have nothing to do with the twelve stars of Europe (which can be found on the circulation coins of all euro countries) but represent the zodiac sign "Cancer". Slovenia as an independent country was born, so to say, under that sign. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
