You know the saying “Three times a charm?” My dynasty decided to skip 1 and 2 in order to start off on a high note.

So you're a racist colonial lover who is also against apartheid and such. Now that's a difficult combination to juggle around, rather hypocritical indeed :d

To be honest, at first I was like “I’m just gong to choose some over the top name”, but then it turned into “who do I want to be name after.”

I think the best solution was made by TM King and Queen of Spain (then TRH Prince and Princess of Asturias) for their elder daughter - HRH Princess Leonor de Todos los Santos.

      [OFF TOPIC] General Chat

      By Federer91 · Posted

      Interesting, for only 2 months i think i have seen some kind of coin from all of the big countries - Germany, Italy, Spain, Holland, France, Portugal, Belgium, Finland, Ireland and yes the 2 euro from Croatia. But some of them were the smaller ones, 10, 5, 2 cents.    Expectedly there aren't any from the smaller countries so far. Nothing from the Baltics, Cyprus, Slovenia, Malta, Andorra etc. But also a bit surprising i haven't seen any from Greece yet.    Don't know from what part of Italy are you, but it's safe to say that when summer hits there will be a lot of Bulgarians visiting Rome, so i'm sure they'll bring some of our coins to spread around.

      I choose to collect only coins in circulation (and I have also found coins in circulation that should not be on the market; you can find a bit of everything). From my experience, it takes 4-5 years for coins to reach southern Italy, so I have no idea how it will work in Bulgaria. Incidentally, I am curious to see when I will see my first Bulgarian coin. I have not yet seen a Croatian coin (introduced in 2023!).

      Yes, i saw that there are a lot of commemorative coins. But to get some of those, i would need to buy them, as i don't know how much of them are in circulation. And the chances of such making it to Bulgaria are rather slim.    Still, if i find some sports ones on a good price, maybe i will order a few.

      Have you already started looking for the hundreds of commemorative 2 euro coins? There are loads of them, including sports-themed ones.

      Don't know if someone else is collecting Euro coins, but since we joined the zone it's been fun looking at what you can get.    It took only 2 months, but today i finally got my first Slovakian coin.  @hckošice
