All EURO-coins minted before 31-12-1998 contains NO EURO-currency but only ECU-currency.

Hi,

Should it be that all coins with EURO on it, minted before 31-dec-1998, are no EURO currency but only ECU-currency.

So the "Face value - in word form" should contain "EURO = ECU"!

The reason is that on 31-12-1998 the UK; Denmark and Sweden (members of the ECU) doesn't go into the EURO and Finland and Austian are new members of the EURO (and not of the ECU).

The exchange rates between all the local currencies and the EURO are changed on that date (31-12-1998) and fixed till now.

Most of the changes I made are rejected and that is in mine mind INCORRECT.

Hopefully you all agree with me and it will be changed for all those coins (EURO minted before 31-12-1998); giving the correct FACE-VALUE : "ECU"!

Well, technically you are right. Euro can stay in the name, if the coin is denominated as Euro, but ECU is the actual value.


Furthermore, there is a question where ECU should be located. As they could not be used as a currency - they should stay among exonumia.

Hi,

Sometimes on a coin are TWO currencies; one of them is EURO (better said : ECU because it is before 31-Dec-2008).
Those coins belongs not in the "exonumia" but under ECU from that country.

Hopefully all those coins are located on the right place AND contains the "EURO = ECU" in the FACE-VALUE-IN-WORDS.

Changes to that doesn't be rejected by nobody!!

@Xavier,

 

therecare now some coins qualified as “FANTASY” and placed in the EURO-section.

but those coins aren’t EURO but ECU (==pre EURO) coins.

 

can you tell those (stupid) refferrees that all must be changed AND put in the PRE-EURO -section??

 

i’m very unhappy with those refferrees who made it “FANTASY EURO”-coins!

 

besides thar there isn’t NO DEMONETIZED date because those coins aren’t monetized ever!!

 

hope you will answer soon.

@Xavier,

 

didn’t got any answer!!

 

can those coins changed to the Pre-EURO (?-1998) AND NOT in the EURO (1999-now)??
