[QUOTE="chrisild, post: 1244025, member: 39"]Again a good compilation, Clinker, thanks! Oh, and when I mentioned the Portuguese "Justo" coin in my reply to Part 11 ... can you tell I had not seen this post of yours yet? ;) This coin that you present [url]http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/display.php?image=nmc10/z914&desc=Portugalkm77510Euro(2006)1986-2006Port-Espana&query=Portugal[/url] (commemorates the 20th anniversary of Portugal's and Spain's accession to the European Union) I find interesting because both coins, the Portuguese and the Spanish one, have the same design. No, that is just in the description. The name of currency, singular or plural, is "euro". But just as some believe that colloquially an "s" should be added for the plural, others will add an "á" depending on their mother tongue. The coin will still say [i]euro[/i] in any case. Slovenia did something interesting - in addition to the €2 commemorative coins, they also issue €3 collector coins. The latter are, as all collector coins, legal tender in the issuing member state, and do not actually circulate anywhere. But at least they are not surcharged, and the mintages of those bimetallic "three-ers" are fairly high ... Christian[/QUOTE]
