I had no idea each country got to have their own euro design. That's cool as hell.

And they move around Europe, it's always cool to check your change and find a bunch of national coins in it

There's one appreciating the efforts of the health care sector during the SARS pandemic.

Not as cool as giving everyone a fat cheque, but still a nice gesture.

US did this with state quarters in late 90s. These customized euros arrived early 2000s. Perhaps inspired? I'm not sure.

The paper money is the same btw

[-] lugal@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 weeks ago

The same in the sense that they are the same in each country. I see I put it ambiguously. Sorry.

Yeah, but the state quarters weren't produced in or otherwise exclusively released in those states

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
