Unless they're uncirculated, I don't think any of those are going to be worth more than face value. Which certainly doesn't mean they're worthless, since there are now over 1½ dollars to the euro.

 A short comparison based on 1 cent coins of first year of minting: Germany - 1 EC (2002) - mintage of 4,00 billion Italy - 1 EC (2002) - mintage of 1,35 billion France - 1 EC (1999) - mintage of 794 million Spain - 1 EC (1999) - mintage of 721 million If any of the euro coins should be worth more than face value, it will be the ones of lowest mintage: Finland, Luxembourg, San Marino, Monaco. Apart from that, some rare dates exist. You can see the full list here: http://www.euro-auflagen.de/index.php?lang=en(EDIT: year correction)

Spain should say "1999" since that is the first year that appears on their euro and cent coins. Actually France and Germany started making the coins at about the same time - in summer 1998. But some countries picked 1999 as the first year for the coins (since that is when the euro was created) while others picked 2002 (since that is when the cash became legal tender). Then again, as you wrote, those are all "mass" pieces. Finland is a little more expensive especially when it comes to the 1 and 2 cent coins; Cyprus, Malta and Slovenia could cost or bring a little more than face as there aren't that many coins from these countries yet. And to San Marino and Monaco you should add the Vatican - the VA pieces are only made for sets and thus collectors.

Well I didn't add Vatican as I was unsure about their character. Thanks for clarification.

Vatican and monarco coins are generally the most expensive in any condition. Since most are made for collectors you will be lucky to find them in change anyway. At this point in time 99% of all circulated euros would be face value items.

Sure, any €2 coin has that value in US dollars, even badly worn ones.  But as Sap wrote, there are hardly any euro circulation coins that are worth more than face ... Christian

No...incorrect....if you are talking circulated coins...yes....if you are talking circulation style coins in Unc condition...then no as there are a number that were only available in sets and these are worth (sometimes considerably) more than face.

Right, the link that DL20K posted has more detailed information about such sets-only pieces too. That is why I wrote "hardly any" - but in the list posted in the initial message there are no coins that were made for sets only. Except for the German 50 cent pieces (no further info regarding years and mintmarks) maybe ...
