Kingz : Your pictures reminded me a memory I have in Nederlands.
Me and a hotel security guard went through big boxes of Euro coins, 1 and 2 Euro, vairous cents, etc. We searched for Nederlands Euros with the very helpful guard. Of all we've went through, very little was actually From Nederlands! ALmost half were Germany. A lot of France and Italy, along with Belgium followed. Then, I found several from Slovenia, Ireland, Spain and Portugal. Ahh.. even a couple from Letzeburg. I remember going through about 200 coins with that guy and apart from 20 and 50c's, I remember only finding two 1 Euro from Holland and a single 2 Euro..
Seems like the Mint of Nederlands is taking a long break :) as long as Germany mints.. :)))

I scored 7 Ikes today from a teller tray - no silver, but they are fun to give to clueless toll booth collectors!

Excellent day for me today, went through $260 in halves brought into the bank where I work by two different clients, found 9 1964's and 12 40% silvers. Now if I could only figure out which one brought in the silver?

Gothic Florin: I like your style!
Australia has long since withdrawn the paper $1 note and replaced it with a coin in 1984.
15 years after the coin was introduced, as an executor of an estate, I discovered a small cache of rather worn $1 notes. I gave these to my kids to spend in their school canteen. The ladies behind the counter hadn't a clue, either!
