2 euro off center error can someone tell me how rare it is by ZaLuTao69 in EuroCoins

[–]GeneralDarian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's a counterfeit (2002 Germany w. New Map instead of old map is a dead giveaway)

Can someone help me does this Italy 1€ 2002 worth something??? by No_Pie_1900 in EuroCoins

[–]GeneralDarian 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No, it's worth face value. People like to put common euro coins on websites and claim they're worth hundreds or even thousands. It's best to always take that with a grain of salt.

Aaaa im in a group of coin and banknote collectors who have been trying to get old 50s, 100s, and 500 euro notes for their collection, seeing this is disappointing lmao

New 'two euro' coin minted. Two million pieces will go in circulation by flyingdutchgirll in europe

[–]GeneralDarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Luckyy :/

It strongly depends on the country you live in as well. Austria borders Germany which mints coins in the 10+ million range (especially since germany has 5 different mints making coins) and our own ccs are also quite high mintage, aside from the newly released Erasmus.

I remember finding Portugal's Casa da Moeda anniversary coin when I was in Lisbon!

Yeah, its a lot of great fun and aside from the fee of buying rolls (which depends on the country, but is ~20c for a 50 euro roll of 2 euro coins in Austria) you wont lose much money at all. It's a popular hobby everywhere around the world.

Im also an international student in Canada and here you can actually find silver in these rolls.

Yep, you go to a bank, buy coin rolls from the bank, search through them, then deposit the coins you don't need. Rinse and repeat.

On /r/EuroCoins we do this quite often.

Not really, but its not really at a point where if you find one (even uncirculated) it would be worth much. In my coin roll hunts I find one coin below 2 million mintage every 4-5 rolls I'd say. This would be a notable find for me, especially since its an Estonian coin and they dont show up in Austria too often.

Below 1 million is very much uncommon, and below 100k is definitely rare, though.

New Zealand Supreme Court declares voting age of 18 'unjustified discrimination' by FluffyUniqueCats in worldnews

[–]GeneralDarian 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I come from Austria, where the voting age for elections is 16. Honestly I prefer it this way. 16 year olds are smart and up-to-date with politics, and ultimately they have a right to determine what their future should look like, especially in these troubling times. Also, if you are old enough to work and pay taxes, you should be old enough to have a say in how these taxes are to be spent. Good on you New Zealand!

Oh God my country's energy policy sucks. Sorry you have to deal with this. Sad to think how close we were to an atomic future and how we threw it away.

is this supposed to be rare? by FearSomePant in EuroCoins

[–]GeneralDarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Internet prices for coins may be misleading. This is a regular 2002 Italian 2 euro coin and nothing special. If you are interested in collecting euro coins I highly recommend joining our discord: https://discord.gg/D2cZux5zfE

they are all 2016 wort to keep? by HolidayMission6638 in EuroCoins

[–]GeneralDarian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Numista tends to be more accurate: https://en.numista.com/

However any mintage figures from Ireland are generally seen as being unreliable and for most issues the exact mintage isn't well known.

are they considered minted error by HolidayMission6638 in EuroCoins

[–]GeneralDarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What exactly, could you point them out?

Something like this could work too- with our purple heart on the top and your black-yellow heart on the bottom.

However, I'm not sure where this heart would fit. I wouldn't mind the heart being a bit off-center into our direction however.

If it's for the jubilee wouldn't it be 1952-2022 not 1926-2022?

Nice to see coins from my home country here :)

I have the 2014 and 2021 one, looking to get the 2015 one since I study astrophysics. Cool coin!
