:roll: Guess what the old Cyprus coins had on them... CYPRUS!

And guess what the NEW Cyprus coins read... that's right it's CYPRUS again! :lol:

Now let's see the "TRNC" coins...

DOH! :(

I always loved those figurines with spread arms. That should also figure on the flag of United Cyprus.

Just imagine Oracle opening her arms in a warm welcoming gesture next to GR. :lol:

Closing a thread is the cowards way out. I'm not finished yet.
EU countries can issue Euros with their own language and designs on the reverse. Its what's on the obverse that counts.

Since you are not finished yet, then we have a timely reminder of how special the Cyprus Euro coin actually is ...

Cypriot coin receives Best Trade Coin prize

January 18, 2010

The Cyprus 2 euro coin has been awarded first prize, gaining the title “Best Trade Coin” in an international competition organised in 2009 by Krause Publications, the American publisher of “World Coin News”, the Central Bank of Cyprus has announced.

The winning coin is the common 2 euro circulation coin which depicts a cross shaped idol dating back to the chalcolithic period (3000 BC). The idol is an example of Cyprus’ prehistoric art and civilisation.

According to the judges, the coin possesses all-around appeal both from the aesthetic and commercial viewpoints, and best meets the basic considerations of actual circulation as a monetary unit.

The award will be presented on 30 January 2010 during a special ceremony at the World Money Fair in Berlin.

Congratulations on Cyprus' version of the 2-Euro coin.
Every Euro-zone country has its' own versions, but they are all Euros and can all be used in all EU countries. That doesn't make the Euro anyones "own", it makes them common to all. Hence "the common 2 euro circulation coin"

What are you trying to prove, I still don't get it. That Cyprus doesnt have it owns currency?

One of the Forum members "myelitis" (or is that a disease?) said "Yah, boo, sucks - TRNC doesn't even have its own currency", on one of the other BBs and I countered that neither did the "RoC".
He dragged the thread over here and the rest you know about. :roll:

So, having established that the RoC does indeed mint its own internationally recognised currency (the prize-winning Cyprus Euro), how precisely have you proved the forumer who said the above as being wrong? :?

You haven't! You grasped at a straw and you have sunk! :lol:

No, Cyprus hasn't minted its "own" internationally yada yada yada. It has designed a Euro coin which it has won a prize for. It may or may not be minted here, in the strictest sense of the word, but even if it is, it is still a Euro coin, COMMON to the EU, and the Euro is not Cyprus' OWN, it belongs to the EU. Geddit? :roll:

GR old lad,

I have never said TRNC had it's own currency. Myelitis made a point of saying it hadn't, to which I said "neither does the "RoC".
I have got all day, but this is getting boring.... :roll:
