- Today was a 20 roll hunt of 50c coins, and boy was it good! In
- total I got 6 finds, and 3 of them were new. The coins I got were:
- Andorra 2018, Germany 2003 (G; NIFC), Germany 2005 (D; NIFC), Italy
- 2023, Netherlands 1999 (Proof), and Netherlands 2015 (NIFC). The
- 2005 coin from Germany, both Dutch coins, and Italian coin were all
- new for me. The other 2 NIFCs and microstate were duplicates, but
- great finds nonetheless.

- So Saturday (30<sup>th</sup> of September, 2023) was the first ever
- ‘official’ meetup of the Euro-Coins Discord Server. It was a really
- great experience, and guys came from all over Europe to meet up.
- During the meet we exchanged coin rolls and did some trades, and I
- have <em>a lot</em> of new stuff to add to the site! I’d love to
- credit each person individually, but there was just a lot of people
- and it’s hard to track exactly what came from whom.
- <br><br>
- Starting off with banknotes, I got 9 new ones! They were: Spain €5
- (Europa; Lagarde), Portugal €10 (Europa; Lagarde), Spain €10
- (Europa; Lagarde), Austria €20 (Europa Testnote; Draghi), Germany
- €20 (Europa Testnote; Draghi), Austria €50 (2002; Duisenberg),
- Austria €100 (Europa Testnote; Draghi), Germany €100 (2002;
- Trichet), and Italy €100 (Europa; Draghi).
- <br><br>
- With the above banknotes, I now have all Europa banknotes for both
- €5 and €100, and I have some testnotes for the first time!
- <br><br>
- Next, moving on to the standard issue coins, I got a whopping 154
- new dates for my collection, with 8 of those being NIFCs! They are
- as follows: Austria 1c (2003), Austria 5c (2006, 2009), Austria 20c

- <strong>UPDATE:</strong> I opened some Austrian 50c rolls I got at
- the meetup and got Germany 2022&nbsp;D, which is a new date for me.
- I also opened a 5c Luxembourgish roll I traded for. It yielded me
- with two new dates in the form of Luxembourg 2022 and 2023!

- Today I got a bunch of rolls for the upcoming Euro coins meetup in
- Frankfurt. I also got a few €2 rolls for myself, and I only got one
- new find. It was a stellar find though! I got an NL 2006 NIFC, but
- it was also a proof! That brings the mintage to just 3,500. I now
- have the 2006 NIFC coin in both the proof and regular varieties,

- After my recent trip to Greece, one of my friends decided to pay me
- back in all 5c coins. Due to financial reasons he didn’t pay me all
- in one go, but he did give me €200 (80 rolls) in 5c coins. It took
- a long time to go through all of them, but the end result was 26 new
- coins. There were no NIFCs, microstates, or insane finds, but it
- was definitely a good hunt to fill in some of the missing dates!
- <br><br>
- The new dates are: Belgium&nbsp;(2022), France&nbsp;(2012, 2018,
- 2022), Germany&nbsp;(2006&nbsp;A, 2006&nbsp;F, 2006&nbsp;J,

- Koninklijke Nederlandse Munt. It’s the more common of the two
- varieties, but I now have both varieties! He also gave me a 2002

- for me however. I also got Netherlands 2005 (x3) and
- 2006 (x4) bringing me to 7 more Dutch NIFCs, but I also

- In more interesting news, I got some more mail today.

- Today I did another €2 coin hunt and got some pretty nice finds! My
- standard issue finds were Finland 2005 and Italy 2008. I also got
- two new commemorative finds in the form of Germany “Karl der Große”
- 2023 (J), and Luxembourg “Grand Duke Jean” 2021.
- <br /><br />
- Also it turns out that the Belgian Red Cross coin from 2014 is not

- <br /><br />
- What I <em>did</em> get however that actually is now listed on this

- &amp; Adolphe” commemorative from 2005, and <em>20</em> new
- banknotes!
- <br /><br />
- The new banknotes are (and for everyones sake I will abbreviate the

- Another day, another €1000 hunt of €2 coins. This hunt only got me
- 2 new finds, but 2 new finds are still 2 new finds! Both of them
- were German commemoratives in the form of “Hamburg” (A; 2008), a
- coin with a mintage of only 1M — and “Karl der Große” (D).
- <br /><br />
- With the new “Hamburg” (2008) find, I now have the full set finished
- and only need 3 more mintmarks to complete the entire German
- commemorative series from 2004–2022. Additionally, the “Karl der
- Große” find brings me a little closer to finishing the German

- Today I went ahead and did another €1000 hunt of €2 coins, and it
- was pretty successful! In this hunt I got nine new finds — two of
- which are commemoratives and one of which is a microstate.
- <br /><br />
- The new commemorative finds were both from Germany; “Erasmus
- Programme” (J) and “Karl der Große” (A). The Erasmus coin is the
- last missing mintmark for me, so that’s cool — and the “Karl der
- Große” coin is the first of it’s kind that I’ve found, so that’s
- also cool!
- <br /><br />
- The other seven finds were: Finland 2002 &amp; 2008, France 2014,
- Italy 2006, Monaco 2011, and Spain 2008 &amp; 2009.
- <br /><br />
- Also small site update — the 1-, 2-, and 50c denominations as well
- as the €1 denomination from Estonia have been marked as “not minted”

- I have finally done it, I’ve found a way to hunt coins in the

- There is a Spar on the campus of my ex-university. This Spar is
- special because it has something that I’ve never before seen in this
- cashless dystopia — a self-checkout machine that accepts cash!
- <br /><br />
- I don’t know how it didn’t come to my mind earlier but by creating a
- false purchase of high value (maybe €500 for example) and then
- dumping all your coins in the coin funnel you can then cancel the
- purchase and get your coins back, except it’s not the same coins,
- but different coins of the same denominations!
- <br /><br />
- What this in effect means is that I can go and just put my coins in
- this self-checkout machine and then cancel my order in a cycle while
- getting new coins every cycle. I did this for the first time today
- and got 3 new finds! Two of the finds were regular issue 20c coins,
- Germany 2008 (F) and France 2020. The other find was a
- commemorative issue in the form of the Dutch Erasmus Programme coin!

- So today was mail day, and it was another American coin. I got a
- bicentennial Ike Dollar; it’s certainly one of the biggest coins
- I’ve ever held (maybe the biggest ever). It has no mintmark, so
- it’s a Philadelphia dollar. This also means that once I get the
- version with the Denver mintmark I’ll have all circulating
- bicentennial coins from the USA!
- <br /><br />
- I haven’t gotten any new euro-coins yet, but there’s a chance I’ll
- be heading to Croatia next week so I’m hoping to get some new coins
- there, or to maybe even do a vending machine hunt!

- I met up with Dan from the
- <a href=https://discord.com/invite/dM3rHy4ANk>
- Euro Coins discord server</a>
- today; he was passing through Rotterdam. He was generous enough to
- give me a total of €275 worth of 2002 banknotes. Of these notes, 16
- were new for the collection! They are as follows: €5 Germany (JCT),
- €5 Netherlands (WD), €5 Portugal (JCT), €5 Spain (JCT), €10 Germany
- (JCT), €10 Greece (JCT), €10 Ireland (WD), €10 Ireland (JCT), €20
- France (WD), €20 Germany (JCT), €20 Ireland (WD), and €50 Italy
- (JCT).
- <br /><br />
- Thanks a lot for the notes Dan!

- Today I did what is likely my final vending-machine hunt of my trip
- in the United States. During this hunt I got 3 new quarters, one
- state quarter, one “America the Beautiful” quarter, and most
- excitedly, one territory quarter! My 3 new quarters are (in order
- of mint year): South Carolina (P), Puerto Rico (D), and Great Basin
- (P).

- I did another vending-machine hunt at Miami-Dade College again
- today. There wasn’t too much to get since the vending machines seem
- to have been filled up with UNC rolls of the Bessie Coleman quarters
- but I still was able to get two new state quarters. These were New
- Hampshire (P) and Oregon (P).

- I passed by Dolphin Mall in Miami today; hunted some more vending
- machines. Didn’t get too many finds but still a good couple. Got 5
- new “America the Beautiful” quarters and a new “American Women”
- quarter. The new “America the Beautiful” quarters were: Denali (D),
- Ellis Island (D), Mount Rushmore (P), River of No Return (P), and
- Shenandoah (D). The new “American Women” quarter was Edith
- Kanaka‘ole (P).

- 11 new quarters were added to the collection today from a short
- vending-machine hunt at Miami-Dade College. Of the 11 quarters, 9
- were state quarters and 2 were “America the Beautiful” quarters.
- The state quarters are: Colorado (P), Hawaii (D), Minnesota (P),
- Missouri (D), Montana (P), Nevada (P), New Jersey (D), New Mexico
- (P), and South Carolina (D). The “America the Beautiful” quarters
- are: Denali (P) and Apostle Islands (D).
- <br /><br />
- I also passed by a currency-exchange office and managed to exchange
- my €500 in cash for my first ever €500 bill. It costed my new
- French €200 Europa note that I got from another currency-exchange,
- but getting €500’s is a lot harder so it’s worth it. The €500 bill
- is German with the signature of Wim Duisenberg.

- I did another vending-machine hunt today. It was a small hunt and
- got me 7 new quarters. I got the 6 state quarters of: Maine (D
- &amp; P), Michigan (P), Mississippi (D), Texas (D), and Washington
- (P). I also got the “America the Beautiful” quarter of Weir Farm
- (P).

- In bigger news, my coins from my swap with Jon have arrived. He
- included all sorts of extra goodies but they aren’t relevant to this
- site so I won’t be listing them here. The swap got me 11 new 1- and
- 2-eurocent coins, a new American bicentennial coin, a new American
- Lincoln commemorative penny, 3 new NIFC Dollar coins, 3 new state
- quarters, 1 new district quarter, and finally 1 new “Westward
- Journey” nickel.
- <br /><br />
- The eurocents included were: Germany 1c (2009-D &amp; 2013-A),
- Germany 2c (2003-G, 2006-A, &amp; 2006-D), Spain 1c (2002), Spain 2c
- (2009 &amp; 2015), and France 1c (2007, 2010, &amp; 2016). The
- American bicentennial coin was a half-dollar from Denver. The
- Lincoln penny was the “Birth and Early Childhood” penny from
- Philadelphia. One of the NIFC dollars was a native-american
- space-program dollar from Denver and the other two were presidential
- dollars: Chester Arthur (P) and John F. Kennedy (D). The state
- quarters were California (D), Pennsylvania (P), and Rhode Island
- (D). The dictrict quarter was my second district quarter so far, a
- Puerto Rico (P). Finally, the “Westward Journey” nickel was a Bison
- (D).

- Today was pretty successful. I passed by Chase Bank near closing
- hours and it was a good thing I did too. The customer right before
- me in the line to the teller deposited $10 in dollar coins. I
- bought them from the bank and got two new finds: a “Great Law of
- Peace” native-american dollar from Philadelphia, and a Herbert
- Hoover NIFC presidential dollar from Philadelphia.
- <br /><br />
- I also hunted a printer (it accepts cash payment to print stuff). I
- managed to get 5 new “America the Beautiful” quarters, 5 new state
- quarters, my first ever districts quarter, and a new “Westward
- Journey” nickel. The “America the Beautiful” quarters were: Block
- Island (P), Great Sand Dunes (D), Homestead (D),
- Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller (D), and War in the Pacific (P). The
- state quarters were: Connecticut (P), Idaho (P), Massachusetts (P),
- Utah (P), and Wyoming (P). The district quarter was American Samoa
- (D) and the nickel was a Bison (P).
- <br /><br />
- Finally I visited a currency-exchange office hoping to find my first
- €500 bill. They didn’t have any but I managed to snag a French €200
- from the Europa series, a new find for myself.

- <h2>Start of Changelog</h2>
- <p>
- This is the start of the sites changelog. The site has been around
- since the 11th of February 2023, and this collection began around
- April of 2022, so theres a lot of “history” here that won’t end up
- documented. If you <em>really</em> care for some reason, you can
- check the git-log of the site on the
- <a href=https://git.thomasvoss.com/euro.thomasvoss.com>
- git repository</a>.
- From now on I’ll be documenting all my new finds here both so I can
- look back on it in the future for fun, and incase anyone finds
- anything here interesting. I suppose it makes the site a bit more
- human.
- <br /><br />
- I am currently in the United States on vacation, so the next couple
- of site updates are going to be primarily american coins.
