desaturated - in this context means 'lit off' the colours of the flag -(lost the quality of the flag pictures)

Trivia mode='on'
The euro has not been introduced only in the part of the island under the control of the Republic of Cyprus, but also in the two British military centres of Akrotiri and Dhekelia - the first part of British territory ever to adopt the euro.
This is because the military bases have always followed a politics of 'shadowing' Cyprus' laws, and habits, to make life easier for the cypriots who work there and cross the border twice a day. Up to now they were using the cypriot pound.
They're adopting the euro without any bilateral agreement with the ECB, pretty much like Andorra, Montenegro, or the Serbian province of Kosovo.

PS: Jes: Gratulojn!

today I recieved the first coins of Cyprus at work.

If your hoping they'll get distributed trhough the airport in Brussels, think again, way to many collectors among my co-workers and friends.
