In the news today: Bank of Finland starts to sell one and two cent coins to the general audience. See it here: http://www.bof.fi/eng/4_raha/ All of those coins are minted this year, according to this: http://www.helsinginsanomat.fi/tuoreet/ ... 1980254221

I wonder how many days their stocks will last...

There are so many people who still don't have those coins.

Yes there is!

I have work on that day, but starting from 4pm. I can get there, but I have no idea how many rolls I'll be able to obtain. I don't think their stocks will last long. They'd have to have minted several millions of both coins in order for them to last long, because I think the average customer who comes there doesn't only buy a roll of each, but more.

I think I'll buy at least 10 rolls of both coins for myself, but there might be a limitation. If anyone else wants these coins, send me a PM here or in IRC, or post a message below. Here's a list of demands so far:

Ralf 1 roll of both coins

bhoeyb 5 rolls of both coins

JiiPee72 1 roll of both coins

Elmo 2 rolls of both coins

psych3 1 roll of both coins

Licht & Feuer 5 rolls of both coins

Mr Euro 5 rolls of both coins

soilian 1 roll of both coins

peter_at 1 roll of both coins

akiky 1 roll of both coins

aplfi 1 roll of both coins

KimmoJ 1 roll of both coins

alex77r 1 roll of both coins

UPDATE: If there is a limitation, I'll only get a roll of both coins for every person on a first-come, first-serve basis. I'll keep you posted...
UPDATE2: Yes, there is a limitation of 10 of both coin rolls. http://www.bof.fi/eng/1_suomen_pankki/1 ... sentit.stm
I'll try to visit there some other time too. I want to get you guys these coins and a lot of rolls for myself too.

UPDATE3: OK, I'm going to get some coins now, wish me luck...
UPDATE4: Yeah, I've got 20 rolls of both of them now. The lady at the bank said that they would have minted enough of these coins for them to last until the end of September. That means they've minted many, many millions of these coins.
It's gonna take me a while to contact all of you by PM (I've got to go to work) and figure out the payment & postage, but it will happen in the next few days.
UPDATE5: Coins delivered, received and paid!
