I received Luxembourg 10 cent, 2008 in Bohr Gastro-Insel, near Frankfurt-Hahn Airport 1.5 weeks ago.

Today I got my first coin with 2008 on it.

I've got it in Aachen

. It's a german 2euro. It's a church with the name Hamburg on it.

Is this a special coin?

yes it is.

It is the 2008 German Commemorative 2€ coin featuring the Federal State of Hamburg.

A friend at a snackbar has received these 2008 coins:
Luxembourg: 5c, 20c, 50c, 2€
Austria: 20c
I'm spending some CY coins myself in my neighbourhood.

hello
i've a question to Coins Collectors

i've found a 2€ Luxemburg 2008
and the edge is in half "smooth" (i'm not sure of the word) and in half streaked

is it normal ?

No. It is not normal...

Acording to your description, it seems that the edge of the coin is similar to the 1€ coin edge... is'n it?

I think there are two possibilities: False coin or Error.

perhaps we'll be able to help you if you put an image here, test the coin weight and so on...

By the way,

smooth=

"lisse"

ok
but it's not like the 1€ coin

it's separated in the middle of the edge
but not uniformly

i'll take a picture tomorrow
