Nice to know it
I’m german and really would have voted for a new design of 2 euro. Unfortunately the vote is closed and we are waiting for the final result. I hope that the new design will give us at least the impression that 2 euro has more value.In fact everything is getting expensive and 2 euro are no more enough to buy a fast food meal.
