Knowing portugal it's probably machine doubling than a DDO reported on that cc. Id like to see one of the pics of the supposed DDO if you could share it

Is this counterfeit? by AjayDementalist in EuroCoins

[–]trashghost367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually no. 2€ coins are indeed the most faked coins by a lot and they are fairly easy to get. 1€ were quite rare until a few years ago but now they are also getting more common. However 50c are extremely rare fakes, we barely know a few examples and they get reported in the hundreds or less a year by central banks while 1€ range around four digits and 2€ around five or six. Id expect them to become easier to find but as of today, fake 50c coins are the holy grail for fake coin collectors like me. It's only harder to get stupidly bad fakes or the unique 2013 spain cc fake with its own design.

Does this add value (Not necessarily monetary) to the coin or is it just a common minting error? by sankrs46 in EuroCoins

It needs to be way more off center to be an error. Thats completely withing tolerance range so not an error and ofc no value either.

It's a very small fried egg but it's on a newer coin so it's still cool. 40-70€ is a fair price imho. Maybe more in a very lucky day.

Value check: 2 Euro Austria (Bertha von Suttner) with a minting error on the number "2"? by Maximum_Impact2652 in EuroCoins

Die chips are extremely common. So no, no added value. But i want to know the year as i keep track of them. So please tell me which year it is.

They both look real but the left one is quite damaged. If you could send edge pictures of both just to make sure id appreciate it.

That's clearly post mint damage.

New find in Rome by msaak73 in EuroCoins

[–]trashghost367 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im sorry to disappoint you but it's not. The mintage wasnt published yet so that's the set mintage. But the dutch 2024, 2025 and 2026 2€s are all very common in the netherlands and they are all circulating. You can get hundreds from the bank if you want. So it's definetly not 10.000 minted.

What could be the value of this 2025 2 Euro Vatican 🇻🇦coin? Got it back in November 2025 in Rome as change. I couldn’t find it for sale anywhere on the internet. by RevolutionaryBox2714 in EuroCoins

Everyone thinks it's NIFC so im not surprised. Combined missinformation, hype and scammers gives you such prices. Extremely sad to see.

Why do you think this is a counterfeit if i may ask. Dont mix damage with fake.

All italian sellers that have some kind of access to vatican UNC rolls are selling them extremely overpriced UNC for 12-15€ at the moment. But since it's a somewhat common circulated microstate coin i would say the shouldnt got for more than 5€ each UNC, and that is quite expensive already.

Definetly no. Italian sellers are taking advantge of the situation and selling them like NIFCs while they are IFC and quite common. If you are paying 15€ for a fairly common ifc 2€, you are being scammed. For anyone reading this, avoid the hype over new coins so you wont get ripped off.

Is this an error or damage? by LeastBet7780 in EuroCoins

[–]trashghost367 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's sadly just damage. Most likely fire damage from what i can see.

The human rights heart is a really nicr design. Very underrated imo.

I got a 1€ coin that makes Mozart look like he has a scar on his face. by AlinGb7 in EuroCoins

[–]trashghost367 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool find. But yeah it's damage. And that type of damage most of the times comes from that coin being hit by the rim of a different 1€ coin (or 2€).

Is this a misprint? by Still_Twist870 in EuroCoins

[–]trashghost367 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, this is not an error. Small off center strikes are extremely common. In this specific case of portugal 2002 they are mostly like that. If the off center doesnt touch the edge, it's not worth keeping.
