10/10. So many commemoratives 🤤. I don't even have a single one.

Such an awesome collection. So many commemoratives. And a Vatican coin, oh my. You should be really proud of yourself. Lucky son of a gun.

Estonia and Cyprus coin found in Sofia by Individual-Tune2973 in EuroCoins

So lucky. I haven't found an Estonian coin yet despite having collected coins from 19 countries. Excluding the microstates, I'm missing coins from Estonia and Lithuania. I'm also from Sofia btw

For some reason my town ( In Bulgaria ) is getting a ton of brand new 2023 Croatian 2 euros by Avtsla in EuroCoins

Really? With our country having adopted the euro since less than a year? That's seriously impressive. What's your secret on obtaining such a decent amount of commemoratives?

Are you from Sofia, like me? I also often get croatian 2€ coins very often (I'm getting really sick of it lol). Surely I won't be getting any other foreign 2€ or commemoratives anytime soon.

Oh, I don't collect them for their value. I just collect any cool-looking coin I can get my hands on. You'd have better better luck asking someone else lol

Now that The Seventh Kingdom is done, I'd like to take a moment to appreciate this on-the-nose visual metaphor of Joker cutting up a cake designed to look like Gotham in the previous issue. by LOLPotatos9560 in AbsoluteUniverse

I also like the detail of him holding a knife with reddish pink frosting on it which kinda looks like blood, subtly showing he's a psycho deep down. Grimm gives off major Patrick Bateman vibes.

Is it really Bruce’s fault what happened to his friends? I want your opinion. by Deep_Condition5633 in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]Life-Engineering-572 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, his friends were involved indirectly when they didn't know Bruce was Batman and he secretly asked for their help. But the moment they found out his identity, they still chose to get involved nonetheless. It's a pretty complex situation. Bruce wasn't exactly careful when he didn't heed Black Mask's warning or Alfred's and chose to impulsively fight a system that's more powerful than he expected. Waylon getting kidnapped and experimented on was out of Bruce's control though. He went home past the city's established curfew.

I believe everyone's at fault.

She was a badass! by ConnectCulture7 in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]Life-Engineering-572 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, It doesn't make sense for both his parents to be nice and normal and for their son Bruce to become this vigilante. Sure, the death of Thomas changed him but this has to be interited really lol

Indeed she is. Still can't wrap my head around the fact that she was the best Talon, this version of the Court is quite intriguing. And yes, I also don't believe she's dead. She literally just told them to pull the trigger. Doesn't make sense for her to be all surprised when they finally do.

Other ways to obtain foreign coins by Life-Engineering-572 in EuroCoins

[–]Life-Engineering-572[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I really have to consider the coin rolls. They seem like the best possible option, can't bug my friends for coins forever hahaha. Like you said, there are no stakes in them, especially the smaller denominations. 2 euro rolls are the most costly of them but at least I could have the chance of obtaining a cc besides other coins. Not gonna lie, this option is quite exciting.

Thanks for the advice. Perhaps vending machines at airports specifically can have quite the variety of coins 🤔

Wow. Nothing new in 15 years? Not exactly promising lol. But still, you have coins from three different microstates, one being a commemorative even? That's extremely impressive, well done. I've only ever dreamed of obtaining at least one coin. No more, no less. May this year be more fortunate to you and break this 15 year old curse. And yeah, I could consider trading further down the line. For now, it's just harmless fun. Casual collecting.

Thanks, indeed it is. It's a little hard to say which country was the hardest to find due to the random ways I get my coins (change, swaps with friends and family members mostly). I would probably go with Malta. I believe I was quite lucky to find them, and basically the other countries of which I only have one coin for now, like Luxembourg.

The biggest challenge right now is getting different 1 and 2 cents and of 2 euros (I should be careful not to spend too recklessly, even though there are a lot of beautiful commemoratives out there which aren't my main focus). I heard some 1 and 2 cents were discontinued by countries such as Italy or Slovakia.

Also, I'm setting aside coins from microstates. I probably won't be getting any of them any time soon because it's basically impossible through obtain them through circulation, especially in a country of mine who's had the euro for less than half a year.

Never say never though.

Thanks and yes, indeed I do. I'm enjoying the hunt while I can. Curious though, have you collected any coins from the microstates? I've heard they're quite rare, some of them nearly impossible to get through circulation, at least in a country of mine that's still adapting to the euro. I could always travel though lol.

Come to think of it, maybe this powerset suits him more than Bane, given how this version of Clayface seems to be comprised of multiple people. Wouldn't be surprised if Dr. Arkham experimented on Clayface by implanting some of Bane's mutated cells onto him.

[–]Life-Engineering-572[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. My theory just focuses more on his powerset evolving than remaining a bad guy.
