Euro

The information on the Euro is incorrect: "The reverse side of each coin shows individual designs relating to the respective Member State" http://www.euro.ecb.int/en/section/euro0.html

F*ck it, I've just gone through a quick Google search, and the official sources contradict each other. Compare [1] and [2]. What do we do now? —Nightstallion (?) 23:02, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Opening Line

I don't like the opening line of this article: The terms obverse and reverse apply almost exclusively to currency, . I have never heard obverse used outside of currency, but that's just because it's an uncommon word; I have no reason to believe that it is exclusively used in that field. As for reverse, it is used in all sorts of other situations. Djr36 01:14, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
