Our design changed to this shortly after this mf became king. I dislike putting monarchs on coins (and the monarchy in general) but i have go admit, i like how this one was done, with the abstractness.
Should’ve done the €2 coins
Get ukraine into the EU/eurozone just for their trizub on a coin
If we ever adopt the euro, I sincerely hope they do not put the king’s face on the coin. It’s basic and dull.
I love the French one because of how it looks like the flag of Gondor, with the Tree and Stars!
The ROUND eagle in the German one is OFF CENTRE, how does that not bother people??
Fair enough, I still think our last run of Belgian francs slapped with all notes depicting Belgian contributors to the arts,
Interestingly if I had kept any notes around they would have 10x-ed by now according to this eBay listing (in 2002 the exchange rate BEF- euro was 40-1 meaning 25 euro was 1000 Francs; this note is listed at just over €50, so the 200 franc note is being sold for 2000 ish francs)
“Looks like a medieval coin”
Do I have some news for you!
They are indeed medieval designs.
They feature medieval royal seals, from the reign of King Afonso Henriques. The 1, 2 and 5 cents use the seal from 1134, the 10, 20 and 50 cents use the seal from 1142, and the 1 and 2 euros use the seal from 1144!
What did our bearded guy with a cool motto (to stand and withstand) do to you that you didnt even include him?

Nothing like getting blasted and admiring nature 🌲
Malta and Slovakia 👌
The eagle in the German coin being slighy eccentric drives me nuts.
Also, Greece has a reproduction of a coin on a coin. Just no.
Can you please change Germany’s rating to an even number instead of 9? Sorry this really bothers me.
Our design changed a few years ago to this

10/10 Portugal better give this man a passport

Bravo chef! Peak
Malta, Lithuania and Croatia are peak
Vitruvian Man its so good…
was literally made for being in a coin, perfection
Kuna i will always miss you
Out of all things, Croatians decided to name their currency after silly forest animal
10/10
I just realized I may have never actually seen a coin from Finland.
Malta is awesome
Now do 2 euros
The Greek one is an actual ancient coin imprinted in the euro. That’s 10/10 for me.
I’d argue that Portugal should set a trend for us to use more medieval themed coins, cuz that’s a neat design.
It’s a shame we never adopted it. I would love to know what we would have put on
Based spaghetti
I grabbed a coin I had laying around and dear god it’s German

When your friends start talking about topics that have no relation to you
Inbred.
Old Fat Bisexual.
Those are Swans.
BDSM predictably.
Autists interpretation of The Penguin from Batman.
This owl has been on the gear.
Cheers.
Art but Gayer.
Why Jackie Chan?
Invisible, which is fitting.
BDSM but small.
Neil deGrasse Tyson for some reason.
Pretty legit actually.
Shit compass.
The Estonian will always be my favourite, the put the same exact design in all of the coins
Can’t disagree with your argument. In general, we should have more coins with famous chain smokers on them.

Some €1 and €2 coins I have on me right now. Nothing unique I imagine but it is quite interesting.

Congratulations Luigi, this is actually good.
Hold on a damn second,Malta is cooking
Finland is oddly soothing, Greece’s reference to drachmas is very cute, Ireland looks like a Guinness bottle cap, Portugal goes hard

I am offended by our ràting. It should have been 1/10
I have the Finnish coin, it’s my favourite coin

This is the best euro coin. Change my mind
Juancarlos is the best symbol for a euro:
-never worked in his life, portugal, greece and italy should like
-he is italian and mafioso
-tax evasion, Luxembourg, san marino, monaco, vatican, Eire, malta should love it
-sexual depravity, austria, germany, netherlands, vatican should love it
-heir of a fascist, he gets points from germany, italy
-killed his brother in a room, if it were a basement austria would marry him. Finland also understands him, too close
-french blood and raised in Portugal

Greece, Portugal and Malta win for me, at least for the 1€ coins
