<p>[QUOTE="sonlarson, post: 2318271, member: 15488"]One of the collections I started a few years ago was Uncirculated Euros. I have an Euro Dansco which came pre-labeled with the original 12 nations and 3 extra blank pages. I have been adding extra pages as each new country was added. The Dansco will not hold any more pages so I plan on buying a Blank Dansco cover to add more. Until now I had every country except the holy grail Monaco. One would think that with a mintage of 40,000 for the "Official" Monaco Euro set, it would not be that hard to find at a reasonable cost. Other than Vatican and San Marino, I usually paid about $15-$20 for the sets. When the demand soared for the Monaco se,t the price was around $600-$800. Krause currently list it at $325. I don't want to say how much I paid but it was less than that. Goggle the set if you want to see a wide range of prices. Be sure you are searching for an Official set, there are many un-official set which only have 5 of the 8 coins. Why so high? Consider that the 1,2, and 5 Euro cents each had a mintage of 40,000 and were only available in the Official Set. Krause list the 1 Euro cent at $75 and the 2 and 5 Euro Cents at $85 each. That's $245 for 8 Euro Cents!</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, until a new country is added to the Euro coinage I can now say this collection is complete!</p><p><br /></p><p>2002 Monaco Official Euro Set Mintage 40,000</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]468101[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468102[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468103[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468104[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468105[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468106[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468107[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
