Description
Extremely rare coin 2007 issue should be second map, but as seen in pics it's first map for some odd reason Resulting in a transitional map error Highly collectable and valuable as a result In 2007, several euro countries produced coins with an error on the reverse, specifically using the old map of Europe instead of the new one that included future member states. This occurred in Germany and Portugal, where some 2007 coins were mistakenly minted with the old map. Finland also had an error, using the new map on a 2006 coin. These errors are considered valuable by collectors. Specific Error Details: Germany: A German mint produced around 200,000 20-cent coins with the old map in 2007. Portugal: Portugal also produced coins with the old map in 2007. Finland: Finland mistakenly used the new map on a 2006 2 euro coin. Identifying the Error: Old Map: The error coins will feature the old map of Europe, which does not include all the current member states. Year: The coins will be dated 2007 (or 2006 in the case of the Finnish coin), even though the correct version of the coin should have the new map. Country Specific: Each country had its own distinct design on the reverse side of the euro coins, so the error will be specific to the country of origin. Value to Collectors: Rarity: These error coins are considered rare and are sought after by collectors. Mule Coins: These are often referred to as "mule coins" because they combine elements from different versions of the coin. Increased Value: Due to their rarity and collector interest, these coins can be worth significantly more than their face value, according to some coin forums.
