Bacchus2 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2889 Posts	Posted 02/15/2011 07:59 am Hi, I don't live in Euro land but I do nip across the border to the Republic of Ireland quite often to take advantage of the cheaper diesel prices. I got this in change - instead of a 1 cent coin. I don't collect Euros (except to spend :) ) but I do check them if I have any in case they are a fistful of ones from the Vatican City... Obviously somebody has had a nice holiday....
