          • Because the Danes think all other currencies are inferior to their mighty Krona. Backed by Tuborg, no less!

            And besides, they already had two national referendums where the pro-Euroist lost badly.

              • really the epikoinoniaki politiki (emm like communicative science?) before the referendums was pretty appaling.

                they presented them with the maastricht treaty itself.

                noone understands it, not even those who wrote it

                shoupld have stuck to the important points.

                  Excellent.....
                  Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.
                  -Richard Dawkins

                      Well, Luxembourgian coins have the Archduke on one side, some of the Spanish Carlos, the French Marianne and the Dutch Albert II , so there won't be any problem to make coins with Elizabeth II / Charles ??. or William not the Conqueror.
                      Why doing it the easy way if it is possible to do it complicated?

                        First £2 coins were minted in the mid-eighties. They were minted extensively in the mid-late 90s, and on average around 40 million are issued each year, compared to an average of 35 million £1 coins a year.

                        • Where do all the £2 coins go to then?

                          I take around £200 in £1 coins while on a checkout, but only one or two £2 coins.

                          • Rate of release into the money supply is different to the actual money supply.

                            i.e 35 million £1 coins for the past 20 years leads to more than 40 million £2 coins for the past 6 years.
