Hobbit coins

***Earniel*** · 10-13-2012, 07:30 AM

I've always quite liked the idea of special occasion or anniversary prints of coins. (Although I have given up on trying to collect the different national euros because there are so, so many special occassions by now and all on two euro or one euro coins that it's becoming pricy to put them all aside.)

I wonder though, how many of these Hobbit coins will remain in the legal tender? I remember when the Vatican introduced their own euros, the collectors were standing ready in line, making me doubt whether any of those Vatican euros are still in purses and wallets, being used today, rather than lounging in collections. I certainly never came across any.
