Yesterday I found this coin too. It must be very common if it has already travelled to Ireland!
If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

Not that common, only 6.000.000 are made for BE and LUX. But the National Bank from Belgium are using them like ordenairy 2€s :) . Soon, shiny one's will be quite rare.

Last week I got an other one, also from circulation. I've heard also other people finding the coin. It's not THAT special I guess :wink:
