    I had no idea each country got to have their own euro design. That’s cool as hell.

      And they move around Europe, it’s always cool to check your change and find a bunch of national coins in it

      US did this with state quarters in late 90s. These customized euros arrived early 2000s. Perhaps inspired? I’m not sure.

        I think it was more like We had national currencies so let’s at least keep national backsides of coins.

        The paper money is the same btw

          Is a much more interesting but wholly unrelated sentence.

          Where??? They were intentionally vague and of fake bridges that evoke a feeling of a general area

            The same in the sense that they are the same in each country. I see I put it ambiguously. Sorry.

        Yeah, but the state quarters weren’t produced in or otherwise exclusively released in those states
