I bought my little bag of Euros for CY£10 at the bank this morning.

Coincidentally, in my post box was a Euro to Pound converter…

Imagine my surprise to discover that according to the calculator the €17.09 in the bag is worth CY£33,090.85!

I’m going to return to the bank later and purchase another 3,000 bags of the Euros which will net me a cool ninety-nine million Cyprus Pounds!

Don't you mean a Pound to Euro converter? Can you please post a photo to show us what this converter looks like?

You can get in touch with some coin collectors here; http://www.euroswapper.com/forum/index.php .You can swap coins there,especially Euros.

No, I specifically meant Euro to Pound although to be fair to you it works both ways. :roll:

Here, knock one out… :wink:

That's a very nice converter.Is it available inscribed only in Greek,or are there ones inscribed in both English & Turkish as well?

After the final withdrawal of the Cypriot Pound,that will become obsolete,& will be of interest to those who are collecting numismatic memorabilia.

It just came in my post-box this morning…

Obviously mine is a very special and rare version - I am willing to sell it to a serious collector for CY£5,000 or €8,500… :wink:

You could sell it here; http://www.coinbay.biz & you won't get charged a listing fee.In fact,you don't even need to have a piece of hard plastic money (credit card) to be registered.
