Found in mom's wallet..
 
"Do you have THIS euro coin in your collection yet ?"




..This is a 10 Baht coin from Thailand and worth only 27 eurocents. The size, weight and first sight appearance is so much like the 2 euro coin, that you won't notice when paying or getting change money quickly. I compared it with the 2 euro coin and the baht coin was only 0,15 mm bigger in diameter and 18 mg heavier. Even vending machines can be fooled with this, but I decided to keep it.. :)

yeh, had a few of them, passed them on,.....

and what does the real coin look like?

btw, depending on size, that's similar to our $2cdn coin - which has a few different production looks to it. (different pics on it)

All euro's have one similar side and one country specific side:





Side at the right says is Dutch

So, go import a bag.
Tell some Thai dude you'll pay 50ct a piece if he exports, you sink 'm into vending machines. Easy money.

what sucks about coins
banks here only exchange paper money


So I prolly have $20-$30 in like five different currencies sitting in my drawer.... and I can't exchange any of them
3 of 'em prolly won't be around much longer either
