[QUOTE="chrisild, post: 2645455, member: 39"]Hehe. Actually it would be possible to terminate the monetary agreement that the EU has with the Vatican. But that would be shooting at sparrows with a cannon, or breaking a butterfly on a wheel, or ... you get the idea. :) While VA actually issues half of its annual volume for circulation now, we're talking about negligible quantities. Some people now believe that whoever OK'd the idea dealt with San Marino and the Vatican at the same time. ;) San Marino, another small non-EU country that has a monetary agreement with the EU and issues euro coins, just changed the obverses of its circulation coins - and they can do that because the 15-year period (see above) is over. The Vatican, no. Or rather "no, but". Christian[/QUOTE]
