Spanish numismatics and the EURO

All about Euro Coins

Since 2002 the countries of the Euro Zone share a common currency, the Euro. This coin is attracting more and more collectors due to the large number of commemorative coins, sets and special editions that each country has. There are many ways to collect euros, small countries with small issues, commemorative 2-euro coins, etc.

Some coins can be worth a fortune, such as the valuable 2 euro coins from countries like Monaco or the Vatican. In any case, countries continue to issue up to two commemorative coins per year, and anyone who decides to look for them can find a large number of users with the same interests.

Are you thinking of selling your coins? On Foronum you can do it for free and without commissions. Our system only puts the parties involved in contact with each other. We give you the best tips to appraise your coins and get a fair price. Consult our guides to buying and selling old coins.

Remember that the best way to obtain the price of an old coin, such as a peseta, is to go to a numismatic shop where a professional will advise you and carry out an appraisal. Normally old coins are deteriorated and hardly worthless for collectors but there are exceptions of valuable pesetas.

    Mexican gold and silver coins

    Mexican numismatics is one of the oldest and contains some of the most valuable coins. For example Mexican gold coins such as 50 pesos are works of art for a collector, but not to be left out are the more humble coins full of history.
    The most popular among Foronum collectors are:

    1. 50 pesos 1982 Coyolxauhqui
    2. 1.000 pesos (Sor Juana de Asbaje) 1988-1992

  • coins of argentina
    Argentine coins with error

    Another country with more coins collected is Argentina, its convulsive politics leads to great monetary changes and diversity of coins. Among them some curious coins like 1 peso from Provincias.

    Argentina | 1 peso
    #KM 112.2 (1995)
    Price: 0,95€ - 17,15€

    The most sought after numismatic feature of this coin is the PROVINGIAS error (with G, instead of PROVINCIAS) which dates from the year of mintage 1995, although it was put into circulation in several years. It is not one of the most valuable Argentinian coins because many were minted, but it is one of the most curious coins in Argentinian numismatics and collectors are often interested in it.
