Bambooski Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 I found about 30 in a drawer today, and I noticed that many have different backs. Are these 'mint marks'? Sorry if it's a dumb question, I'm not very knowledgeable in this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satootoko Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Each country that issues Euro coins is is allowed to put a "national side" design on the reverse, along with the common obverse. That said, there are a multitude of mint marks used on the national sides (several German mints, Rome, Paris, and others.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazinta Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Yes, each country is allowed to put desings and symbols to represent the country. Fe. in France they use a tree or Marianne, in Holland it's Queen Beatrix, Germany the Brandenburgertor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
