snowman Pillar of the Community United States 1840 Posts	Posted 01/14/2010 7:16 pm It is a Swiss fantasy Euro (Cero). It should be made of copper plated steel. According to Krause - Unusual World Coins 16,000 were minted and it is worth $2.50 BU. As for why it was made...who knows. These fantasy patterns seem to multiply like roaches. I'm waiting for a U.S. fantasy Euro pattern to be released. Report this Post to the Staff

But like I said you got it straight on the head, Swiss who would of thunk!

"PS" - I really like this piece, also from that series of supposedly Swiss patterns: http://www.moneymuseum.com/frontend...8363_6_b.jpg Mnyum ...
