Title: Second Europewide commem
Post by: Paint Your Wagon on February 03, 2008, 08:13:28 PM
Since there is gold to win I voted for the design of the second Europe wide commem
I did not like any of the designs so I voted for number 1 as the least silly

Put your mouse on the question mark and it will show the coin

I assume this will be a circulating $2 commemorative? I try to keep up with them but have faltered a bit in the last year. Work keeps getting in the way of my fun. ;D

Believe it or not but the contest closed and the stickman neandertal figure of nr 2 two won the contest in an exceptional voting sprint
I only voted to get a chance at winning the gold so I only know it will be the second commem issued in all countries and I do not know it will be a circulating commem in any or all countries
Sorry
