I'm sure some of you guys have noticed these euro patterns floating around everywhere. Britain's are the most popular but there are also "patterns" for Andorra, Denmark, Sweeden and maybe others that I'm forgetting. Well, I know there are Vatican fantasies that slugs try pawning off for big money. But those others all seem to come from the same place (based on their obverse designs straying from the official common side). Where is that? Who is making these things?! Most reputable sellers admit that they are "unofficial patterns" ie fantasies. So which bums are flooding this already annoying euro market?
For those that don't know what I'm talking about or would like illustrations, here they are:
Andorra - Denmark - Britain - Sweden
(btw- the ire in the previous rant does not extend to the dealer linked to above. He is a reputable guy and this rant just happened to pop into my head again as I was browsing his site, which was praised in another thread earlier today)
(btw2- some of these fantasy coins are kinda nice looking. But the euro mess annoys me and fake euros annoy me even more.. even if they are well made.)
