- 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 (30th 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 a lot of new stuff to add to the site!

- Starting off with banknotes, I got 9 new ones!

- UPDATE: I opened some Austrian 50c rolls I got at - the meetup and got Germany 2022 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, - both from circulation! -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- 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! -

- The new dates are: Belgium (2022), France (2012, 2018, - 2022), Germany (2006 A, 2006 F, 2006 J, - 2008 D, 2008 F, 2009 J, 2011 F, 2011 G, - 2014 A, 2017 G, 2018 F, 2019 D), - Greece (2009), Italy (2005, 2014, 2017, 2019, 2020), - Netherlands (2023), Slovakia (2019, 2020), and - Spain (2002) -

-

- Today I did an in-person swap with Dekzwabber from the - - Euro Coins discord server. As his part of the swap, he - provided me with Luxembourg €2 2023, with the mintmark of the - Koninklijke Nederlandse Munt. It’s the more common of the two - varieties, but I now have both varieties! He also gave me a 2002 - €20 note from Finland bearing the signature of Jean-Claude Trichet. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Turns out I forgot one roll of 10c coins in my bag from my previous - hunt. I opened it up at work and got two new finds in the form of - Belgium 2019 and Germany 2017 (D). -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I did a quick hunt of 10c coins today. Not much to report back but - I did get two new coins in the form of Portugal 2008 and Finland - 2001. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Two updates today. I just got back from Greece and there was - another letter in the mail. This time I got 4 new commemorative - coins from Portugal. They are: 2009 EMU, - 2009 Lusophony Games, 2010 - Portuguese Republic, and 2011 Fernão Mendes Pinto. -

- I also added 2017 150 Years of Public Security to the site - since it was in my collection, but missing from here. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Just a short update. In preperation for my upcoming - trip to Greece I passed by an ATM to get some more cash. - I managed to get a hold of 3 more €50 notes from the - 2002 series. Of those 3, one of them was a Slovak note - with the signature of Draghi, a new note for the collection. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I did another large hunt today. This time it was 40 - rolls of €2 coins. It ended up being super - disappointing actually with only 2 new finds, but 2 new - finds nonetheless. The new finds were Finland 2011 and - Luxembourg 2023 (MdP). -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I did a massive 40 roll hunt of 50c coins today! I - somehow did not destroy my back transporting them by - bike from the withdrawal machine to home. It was a long - hunt with some pretty nice finds! For the microstates I - got Andorra 2020 and Vatican City 2017; both duplicates - for me however. I also got Netherlands 2005 (x3) and - 2006 (x4) bringing me to 7 more Dutch NIFCs, but I also - already have those. As for actually new coins I managed - to get Finland 2003, Ireland 2015, and France 2004! The - French coin is now my first NIFC French coin ever! -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today I did a nice big hunt of 20 rolls of 10c coins. - It was pretty disappointing with only 2 common finds, - but they are 2 finds nonetheless. The first was Austria - 2005, the last Austrian 10c coin I need besides the - elusive 2003 NIFC. The second was Spain 2002; not sure - how I didn’t have that already. -

- In more interesting news, I got some more mail today. - This time I got Monaco €1 2007 without the - mintmark. Super happy to add this to the - collection seeing as it has a mintage of under - 3,000! I still need the mintmark variety though - which still wont be easy with its 97,000 mintage. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today I did a quick €1 coin hunt and got 5 new finds. - The finds were: Austria 2005, Germany 2003 (F), Ireland - 2004, Italy 2004, and Spain 2021. With the new Austrian - and German finds I now have all the Austrian- and German - €1 coins that are intended for circulation. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Just a quick update since it’s super late. Did a 20 roll - hunt today of 50c coins. I managed to get two new finds, a - 2022 (G) and 2022 (J) from Germany. I also managed to get - another 5 2006 50c coins from the Netherlands - adding to my growing pile of Dutch NIFCs. The only new - coins however were my German finds. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I did another big hunt today. This time it was 20 rolls - of 50c coins and 10 rolls of €2 coins. Not much new - found, only Ireland 2013 and Portugal 2005 (both 50c). - I did find 4 duplicate NIFCs though! All 4 of them were - Netherlands 2006 50c. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today was yet another mail day. This was one that I’ve - been planning for a while but never managed to properly - execute, so I’m happy it’s here! This swap had a bunch - of world coins in it but also 2 new euro coins for my - collection. -

- The two new additions were 50c 2018 from San Marino, and - 20c 2018 from Luxembourg. A new microstate is always - welcome, and the Luxembourg coin has a mintage of only - 50,000! -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I did a 10 roll hunt of €2 coins today and got 3 new - finds! I got the German 2021 (D) coin which is one of - the few German €2 dates I still missed. I also very - spectacularly got “Estonian Indepdence” from Estonia, - completing the 2018 Estonian commemoratives, and I also - got “Grand Duchess Charlotte” from Luxembourg! A - spectacular find that completes the 2019 commemoratives - for me! -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I got another letter in the mail today — this time from - Zafeiris on the - - Euro Coins discord server. - I got 4 news coins! Two of them are €2 standard issues - and the other 2 are commemoratives. -

- The standard issue coins are: Greece 2003 and Italy 2016. -

- The commemorative issue coins are: “Constitution” and - “Domenikos Theotokopoulos”, both from Greece. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Small update for a small coin. Today my brother gifted - me a Belgian 2c coin from 2016. I am not sure where he - found a 2c coin in the Netherlands, but it’s new for the - collection, and it’s mine now! -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today I recieved a fantastic swap from The_Figher on the - - Euro Coins discord server! - The swap got me a whole 17 new coins for my collection! Of the 17, - 9 of them were standard issue coins and 8 were commemoratives! -

The third coin I - recieved from a different individual was the Maltese “Games” - commemorative. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today I completed a 20 roll hunt of 10x 10c rolls and 10x 20c rolls. - The hunt got me 8 new 10c coins and 4 new 20c coins for a total of - 12 new finds! -

On top of the German 2012 coin being an NIFC, - I have a sneaking suspicion that it might be a proof coin too. I am - not entirely sure yet though, and if it is I need to figure out how - to actually display that information on the site (if I do at all). -

- The new 20c finds were: Finland 1999, Germany 2013 (G), Germany 2022 - (G), and Ireland 2009. -

- Also big news! The Portuguese translation of the site redesign has - been completed, and so I have officially updated euro.thomasvoss.com - to the new design! It was previously hosted on - new-euro.thomasvoss.com as a trial, but it is now the main site. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- It’s mail day again today, and today’s mail was from Mörtel from the - - Euro Coins discord server. - The swap got me 8 new coins for my collection! For the standard - issue coins I got Luxembourg €2 2019, a coin with a mintage of only - 50,000! On the commemorative side I got Cyprus “EU Flag”, Greece - “Euro Cash”, and 5 new German mintmarks in the form of “Hamburg” - (2023) mintmarks A and F, “Karl der Große” mintmarks F and G, and - Mecklenburg-Vorpommern mintmark D. I actually already had that last - coin, but what makes this one special is that it’s a circulated - proof coin! The fact it’s a proof does make it new for me! -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today I got a letter in the mail from Münzenjäger and I also met up - with Austrian Euro Coin Hunter in Eindhoven! Between the two of - them I got 2 new banknotes and a bunch of new standard- and - commemorative-coins. -

- The two new banknotes I got were a €50 and a €100 banknote. Both - are from Austria, from the “Europa” series, and bear the signature - of Mario Draghi. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- 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. -

- Also it turns out that the Belgian Red Cross coin from 2014 is not - an NIFC as I previously thought, so that has been corrected. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today I met up with Adzivu from the - - Euro Coins discord server! - We had a few beers, and did perhaps the largest face-value swap I - will ever do; a staggering €2,008.28 was the face-value of just one - side of the swap for a total of €3,974.16 exchanged total! As part - of this swap I got some goodies that won’t be listed on the site - such as a Croatian Euro starter-pack, and uncirculated rolls of both - German 2023 commemorative coins. -

- What I did get however that actually is now listed on this - site, is one new commemorative coin from Luxembourg — the “Henri - & Adolphe” commemorative from 2005, and 20 new - banknotes! -

- The new banknotes are (and for everyones sake I will abbreviate the - ECB presidents’ names): €10 Austria (2002; WD), €10 Austria (Europa; - CL), €20 Germany X (Europa; MD), €20 Ireland (Europa; MD), €50 - France E (Europa; CL), €50 France E (Europa; MD), €50 Greece (2002; - WD), €50 Greece (Europa; MD), €50 Netherlands (Europa; MD), €50 - Spain (2002; MD), €100 Austria (2002; MD), €100 Austria (2002; WD), - €100 France E (Europa; MD), €100 France U (Europa; MD), €100 Italy - (2002; JCT), €100 Spain (Europa; MD), €200 Austria (Europa; CL), - €200 France E (Europa; CL), €200 France U (Europa; MD), and €200 - Germany (2002; WD). -

- With the new German €200 banknote from 2002, I now also finally have - one of every type of euro-banknote! -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- 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). -

- 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 - commemorative series as a whole with only 10 mintmarks missing from - 2004–2023. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- 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. -

- 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! -

- The other seven finds were: Finland 2002 & 2008, France 2014, - Italy 2006, Monaco 2011, and Spain 2008 & 2009. -

- Also small site update — the 1-, 2-, and 50c denominations as well - as the €1 denomination from Estonia have been marked as “not minted” - for the year 2023. -

-

-

- Today was a special day, because todau was the Dag van de Munt 2023! - The Dag van de Munt is the once-a-year open-day of the - Koninklijke Nederlandse Munt (Royal Dutch Mint). At the event I met - up with EuroCoinHunt, and got quite a lot of goodies! Not all - goodies are relevant to this site of course — but one that - is was my first ever circulated commemorative coin of a - non-standard denomination! In this case, EuroCoinHunt purchased a - 2023 year-set using €5 “Jaap Eden” commemorative coins from the - Netherlands! As I was after him in the line, I managed to exchange - one of these for €5 — and just like that — my first - non-standard-denomination commemorative coin! -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today I got some rolls for a soon-to-occur in-person swap with - another Discord user for a bunch of banknotes, and some - rolls too. I took this time to also get 10 rolls of €2 coins for - myself too and the hunt granted me 3 new finds and 2 NIFCs! The new - finds I got were: Austria 2013, Italy 2011, and Germany 2006 (D; - NIFC!). I also got Netherlands 2005 — an NIFC — but not one that is - new for my collection. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I got more stuff in the mail today, and this time with lots of new - 1- and 2-cent coins for my dateruns! There was also a new - commemorative €2 in there for me. The new commemorative was the - “Falcone & Borsellino” coin from Italy (2022). The new standard - issue coins I got are: Finland 10c (2008), France 1c (2018), Germany - 1c (2005 G, 2013 D, 2014 A, 2015 J, 2018 J), Germany 2c (2003 A, - 2004 A, 2005 D, 2006 F, 2009 A, 2012 D, 2018 D, 2019 F), Germany 5c - (2020 F), Greece 20c (2021), Portugal 5c (2005), and Portugal 20c - (2003). -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I did a 20 roll hunt of €1 coins today. Nothing super notable in - this hunt, but I did get two new finds. I got an Italian 2012 and a - Finnish 2006. Not much, but two finds are still two finds! -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- And it is once again, mail day! Today’s swap comes from Germany - with one new commemorative and twenty new standard issue coins (one - of them being an NIFC!). The new commemorative was “Treaty of - Élysée” (2013 D). This completes all of this designs mintmarks for - me, and now means that I only need 5 more mintmarks to complete the - entire German commemorative mintmark set from 2004–2022. The new - standard issue coins I recieved are: 50c 2005 (G; NIFC!), 20c 2020 - (G), 10c 2017 (J), 10c 2021 (F), 2c 2015 (F), 2c 2016 (G), 2c 2017 - (G), 2c 2018 (J), 2c 2020 (J), 2c 2021 (A), 2c 2021 (F), 2c 2021 - (J), 2c 2022 (J), 1c 2016 (A), 1c 2016 (F), 1c 2016 (G), 1c 2017 - (A), 1c 2018 (D), 1c 2019 (A), 1c 2021 (D). -

- Today also had another coin hunt. This time I hunted: 16 rolls of - €1 coins, 1 roll of 20c, 1 roll of 10c, and 2 rolls of 5c. The new - finds of the hunt were: France 5c (2016), Germany 5c (2013 G), - Greece €1 (2006), Greece €1 (2011), Italy €1 (2005), Netherlands €1 - (2016), Portugal €1 (2015), Spain €1 (2012), and motherfucking - Vatican City €1 (2013)!!! This might be - the best find I’ve ever found since I started collecting… -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Mail day yet again! Today I got 12 new circulated commemoratives - from Münzenjäger on the - - Euro Coins discord server. - These are: Estonia “Baltic States” (2018), Finland “Markka” (2010), - Greece “Battle of Thermopylae” (2020), Latvia “Zemgale” (2018), - Luxembourg “Constitution” (2018), Luxembourg “Voting Rights” (2019), - Malta “EU Flag” (2015), Monaco “Admission to the UN” (2013), - Slovakia “Constantine & Methodius” (2013), Slovakia “European - Union” (2014), Slovakia “Universitas Istropolitana” (2017), and - Slovenia “Barbara of Celje” (2014). -

- All the coins I recieved from this swap and the swap from the - previous site update were swaps where I gave the exact same coins I - recieved, except I gave uncirculated coins and recieved circulated - ones back. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- It’s mail day again! Today in the mail I got 5 new circulated - commemoratives from Finland. They were: Sauna Culture (2018), - University of Turku (2020), Åland Islands (2021), Ballet (2022), and - Erasmus Programme (2022). -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I just did another quick 50c hunt today. During the hunt I found: - Finland 2011, Germany 2022 (F), and Spain 2002. Not super exciting, - but all new finds nonetheless. I also found Vatican City 2016! I - already have it though, so to the Vatican stack it goes. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today had another 50c hunt and it was a lot more successful than the - last one! In total I had 4 new finds and a nice keeper. The keeper - was a Dutch coin from 2004 with a mintage of 300K. I already have - this coin so I will probably give it to someone else. My actual - finds were: Finland 1999, Italy 2022, Spain 2010, and best of all… - Germany 2007 (F)! The German 50c is my 4th German NIFC - (all the others are also 50c) and my first German NIFC with the - second map! -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I visited an ATM after work today hoping to get some 2002 notes. I - didn’t get any — but I did get an Italian €20 note with the - signature of Christine Lagarde. That brings me down to only 3 notes - remaining for the €20 Europa series! -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today I did a large 50c coin hunt. I went through 800 coins and - sadly there were no microstates or NIFCs… but I did still manage to - get two keepers — Netherlands 2009, a low-mintage coin but one I - already have — and France 2022, a year that is new for me! Both - coins are in excellent condition. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I got some notes out of an ATM today, and managed to pull a French - €20 from 2002 bearing the signature of Jean-Claude Trichet — that - was pretty cool! -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I did a €1000 hunt of €2 coins today. It started very slow with - almost no finds, but of the few finds I got, they were of quality! - The hunt got me 5 new standard-issue coins and 2 new - commemorative-issue coins. The standard-issue coins are: Germany - 2014 (A), Germany 2017 (A), France 2020, Finland 2004, and… - Finland 2015! The Finnish €2 coin from 2015 has a mintage - of only 169,100! The commemorative-issue coins were: - France “Erasmus Programme” and Greece “EU Flag”. The Greek - commemorative has a mintage of ~750,000. -

-

- Right before my flight back to Eindhoven today, I got two new finds - from the vending machines and ATMs. A San Marino 50c from 2020 and - a €20 banknote from Portugal with the signature of Draghi. -

- After landing, I met with a friend of Petros, a user from the - - Euro Coins discord server. - He gave me an envelope of 2002 banknotes with - a face-value of €180. In the envelope were the following new - additions for my collection: Austria €5 (JCT), Greece €10 (WD), - Greece €20 (JCT), Portugal €20 (MD), and Spain €50 (JCT). -

-
-

-
-

-

- Today I left Malta to head back home. I had a layover in Treviso - and did some vending machine hunting which got me a Spanish €1 2015; - a new year for the collection. -

- I also got some banknotes from an ATM and got a new €50 banknote in - the form of an Italian note bearing the signature of Lagarde. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I got an Italian 20c 2020 in my change today; a nice new find. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today I visited the Ġgantija Temples and did a quick shop hunt - afterwards! There was a souvenier shop right across the street from - the temple and I asked to take a look at their €2 coins. In the - cashier I managed to find another Maltese commemorative! This one - was the “The Peace” commemorative from 2017… and it also had the - coincard mintmarks making it a 30K mintage NIFC! That’s why it’s - not yet listed on the site; the coincard variants will be added in a - future update. -

- I also managed to get a German 10c 2022 (D) in my change at the - temple giftshop when purchasing a Kinnie (a fantastic Maltese - drink!), so that was a nice new minor find. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today was pretty uninteresting. I wasn’t able to get anything new - besides a Maltese 20c 2020 from a vending machine. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today I spent the day exploring Valletta along with “La Maltese” - from the - - Euro Coins discord server. - To our meeting he was kind enough to bring a few new Maltese 1c - coins for me from 2013, 2017, and 2021. He also got me 2 rolls of - €2 coins from which I got Italy €2 2018, Germany €2 2014 (D), and - most excitingly of all, the Maltese “Nature & Environment” €2 - commemorative! -

- At the end of the day I did a vending machine hunt in Valletta which - yieled me four new Maltese €1 coins from the years 2016, 2019, 2020, - and 2021. It also yieled me two Maltese temple commemoratives! - “Sadly” one of them was a duplicate for me, the Ħaġar Qim Temples - coin. The other temple coin was for the Ġgantija Temples which I - thought was also a duplicate, but I later realized that it had the - same mintmarks around the year that is found on the variants sold in - coincards. That made that coin an NIFC find with a mintage of only - 30K! -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- This was a pretty successful day with a lot of new finds! Firstly, - before my flight to Malta from Pisa I did some vending machine - hunting. This yieled me with a 2021 Vatican 50c coin which wasn’t - new, but also yieled me with the following new coins: Germany 20c - 2015 (A), Greece 20c 2019, Italy 50c 2007, Italy 50c 2011, Italy 50c - 2012, Italy 5c 2016, Portugal 50c 2021, Spain 20c 2016. -

- After arriving in Malta, I did some vending machine hunting in - Marsaxlokk. This also got me a lot of new finds! I didn’t have - many Maltese coins prior so there was a lot to find. The finds from - the vending machines were: France 5c 2017, Italy 20c 2021, Italy 20c - 2022, Malta 10c 2019, Malta 10c 2021, Malta 20c 2019, Malta 20c - 2021, Malta 50c 2017, Malta 50c 2019, Malta 50c 2020, Malta 50c - 2021, Malta 5c 2017, Malta 5c 2020. -

- Finally, my girlfriend got a Maltese 5c coin from 2015 in her change - at a Spar. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- Today I left for a trip to Malta where hopefully I’ll find some nice - coins! My flight left from Eindhoven with a layover in Pisa. At - Eindhoven I managed to get a new coin as change from a vending - machine when buying a water. It was a Germany 20c 2013 with the ‘F’ - mintmark. -

- When I landed in Pisa I put some banknotes into the change machine - and got three new finds: Italy €2 2022, Italy €1 2021, and Finland - €1 2005. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- It’s another mail day! In the mail today was the Wolf €2 - commemorative from Estonia and a bicentennial Ike Dollar from - Denver. I already had the wolf coin in UNC condition, but this is a - collection of circulated coins so it’s nice to have that now too. - The Ike Dollar is also great to have; it’s the last bicentennial - coin I need besides the NIFC proofs. -

- I also did a coin roll hunt today; it’s been a good while since my - last one! I had a good number of standard- and commemorative-issue - finds today, most of them were common coins I missed but there were - some really nice rarer finds too! -

- The standard issue finds were (all €2): Belgium 2003, Germany 2008 - (G), Germany 2008 (J), Germany 2014 (J), Germany 2016 (G), Spain - 2003, Finland 2003, Greece 2002 (S), and Italy 2004. -

- The commemorative issue finds were: Germany “Erasmus Programme” (F), - Germany “Hamburg” (2023 J), Finland “Treaty of Rome”, Luxembourg - “European Monetary Union”, Netherlands “European Monetary Union”, - Netherlands “Euro Cash”, and Netherlands “Abdication of Beatrix”. -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- It’s mail day! I got my coins from a Numista swap today. In total - I got 7 new coins with 3 being Italian commemoratives and 4 being - Vatican 50c coins. The new coins are: €2 Italy EU Flag, €2 Italy - “Tito Livio”, €2 “National Police”, and all the Vatican 50c coins - from 2010–2013 (all the years of Pope Benedict XVI). -

-
-
- -
-
-

-

- I have finally done it, I’ve found a way to hunt coins in the - Netherlands without purchasing bankrolls or going to a casino! - 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! -

- 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! -

- 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! -

- 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 - - Euro Coins discord server - 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). -

- 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). -

- 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 - & 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. -

- The eurocents included were: Germany 1c (2009-D & 2013-A), - Germany 2c (2003-G, 2006-A, & 2006-D), Spain 1c (2002), Spain 2c - (2009 & 2015), and France 1c (2007, 2010, & 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. -

- 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). -

- 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. -

Start of Changelog

-

- 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 really care for some reason, you can - check the git-log of the site on the - - git repository. - 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. -

- I am currently in the United States on vacation, so the next couple - of site updates are going to be primarily american coins. -

- All German coins bear one of five different mintmarks that represent - the city in which they were minted. These are: Berlin (A), Munich - (D), Stuttgart (F), Karlsruhe (G), and Hamburg (J). -

-
-
- - -
-

- As a result of a late joining to the Eurozone, Greece was assisted by - the countries of France, Spain, and Finland to mint coins for 2002. - For this reason all 2002 coins have two varieties — one with a - mintmark in the star (‘F’, ‘E’, and ‘S’) and one without. -

-
-
- - -
-

- For the years 2020–2021 Luxembourg released certain commemorative - coins in both a “classic” and “photo” variety. Any years labeled with - ‘P’ are of the “photo” variety while years without a label are of the - standard “classic” variety. -

- Additionally, in 2023 the 10c, 20c, and €2 denominations were released - in two varieties. One bearing the mintmark of the Monnaie de Paris - (Paris Mint) and one bearing the mintmark of the Koninklijke - Nederlandse Munt (Royal Dutch Mint). These varieties are suffixed - with “MdP” and “KNM” respectively. -

-
-
- - -
-

- In 2007 Monaco released two varieties of their €1 coin. One - of them has mintmarks around the year while the other one - doesn’t. The variety without the mintmarks is suffixed with - “No MM”. -

-
- - -
-

- Many Maltese commemoratives have different mintmarks depending on if - they were intended for circulation, coincards, or sets. Any years - listed on this page suffixed with “MM” bear an NIFC mintmark, while - any years suffixed with ‘F’ bear the ‘F’ in the star that also - represents an NIFC coin. -

-
-
- - -
-

- Besides just the standard €2 commemorative releases, the Koninklijke - Nederlandse Munt (Royal Dutch Mint) also sells NIFC €5 commemorative - coins; these coins are suffixed with “€5”. -

- There are various examples of euro coins that have slight varieties - between their standard circulation releases and their coincard/set - releases, such as different mintmarks. In these cases, the NIFC - variety will not be listed on this site - unless I happen to get one for my collection (see - Malta for an example). The same applies to error - coins. -

My Euro Collection

…and some world stuff too!

-

- This website houses the entirety of my circulated euro-coin and - -banknote collection. It also has some non-euro currencies too! - Unless explicitly stated otherwise, all coins and banknotes listed on - this site should be circulated. In other words, they shouldn’t’ve - just come from a coin set I purchased from a coin mint. I think it’s - just a lot cooler knowing that a piece of money was previously used in - a real-world transaction. -

Euro-Coins and -Banknotes

-

- The main focus of my currency collecting with a single currency that - spans 26 countries and almost 350 million people. Standard issues, - commemorative issues, and banknotes from all series are all - included. -

- - -

- -

World-Coins and -Banknotes

-

- Money from around the world! This collection gets progressively - larger over time, but is not my primary focus. There are a few - countries in which I take a special interest though. -

- Todas as moedas alemãs carregam uma das cinco marcas de cunhagem - diferentes que representam a cidade em que foram cunhadas. Eles são: - Berlim (A), Munique (D), Stuttgart (F), Karlsruhe (G) e Hamburgo (J). -

-
-
- - -
-

- Como resultado de uma adesão tardia na à zona do euro, a Grécia foi - auxiliada pelos países da França, Espanha e Finlândia para cunhar - moedas para 2002. Por esta razão, todas as moedas de 2002 têm duas - variedades — uma com uma marca de cunhagem na estrela (‘F’, ‘E’ e ‘S’) - e um sem. -

-
-
- - -
-

- Para os anos de 2020–2021, Luxemburgo lançou certas moedas - comemorativas com uma variedade “clássica” e “foto”. Todos os anos com - o sufixo ‘P’ são da variedade “foto”, enquanto os anos sem rótulo são - da variedade “clássica”. -

- Além disso, em 2023, as denominações 10ct, 20ct e 2 € foram lançadas - em duas variedades. Um com a marca da casa da moeda da Monnaie de - Paris (Casa da Moeda de Paris), e outro com a marca da casa da moeda - da Konkinklijke Nederlandse Munt (Casa da Moeda Real Holandesa). Essas - variedades são sufixadas com “MdP” e “KNM”, respectivamente. -

-
-
- - -
-

- Em 2007, o Mônaco lançou duas variedades de sua moeda de - 1 €. Um deles tem marcas de cunhagem ao longo do ano, - enquanto o outro não. A variedade sem as marcas da casa da - moeda é sufixada com “No MM”. -

-
- - -
-

- Muitos comemorativos malteses têm marcas de cunhagem diferentes, - dependendo de como foram destinados à circulação, coincards ou - conjuntos. Todos os anos listados nesta página com o sufixo “MM” - carregam uma marca da moeda NIFC, enquanto todos os anos com o sufixo - ‘F’ carregam o ‘F’ na estrela que também representa uma moeda NIFC. -

-
-
- - -
-

- Além dos lançamentos comemorativos de 2 €, o Koninklijke Nederlandse - Munt (Casa da Moeda Real Holandesa) também vende moedas comemorativas - NIFC de 5 €; estas moedas têm o sufixo “€5”. -

- Existem vários exemplos de moedas de euro que tem pequenas variações - entre seus lançamentos de circulação regulares e seus lançamentos de - cartão de moedas / conjuntos, como diferentes marcas de cunhagem. - Nesses casos, a variedade NIFC não será listada neste - site, a menos que eu consiga uma para minha coleção (veja - Malta para um exemplo). O mesmo se aplica a moedas de - erro. -

Minha Coleção de Euros

-
…e algumas coisas do mundo também!
-
-
- -
-

- Este site contém toda a minha coleção de moedas e notas de euro em - circulação. Também tem algumas moedas diferentes do euro! Salvo - indicação em contrário, todas as moedas e notas listadas neste site - devem ser circulada. Em outras palavras, eles não deveriam ter - vindo apenas de um conjunto de moedas que eu comprei em uma casa da - moeda. Acho muito mais legal saber que um pedaço de dinheiro foi - usada anteriormente em uma transação do mundo real. -

Moedas e Notas de Euro

-

- O foco principal da minha coleta de moeda é uma moeda que abrange 26 - países e quase 350 milhões de pessoas. Edições regulares, edições - comemorativas e notas de todas as séries estão incluídas. -

Moedas e Notas do Mundo

- Dinheiro de todo o mundo! Essa coleção aumenta progressivamente com - o tempo, mas não é meu foco principal. Existem alguns países nos - quais tenho um interesse especial. -
