Just an opinion: Until 2007 if Estonia joins they could manage to change the design. How ugly and dull. Now seriously, if Estonia joins the Euro (a resonable possibility) the common face will change due to that? The common face only shows the 15 former member states... -Pedro 17:21, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Well, the common face of the Euro coins shows all of the EU members, not just the ones in the Eurozone (id est, it also shows Denmark and the United Kingdom). I imagine that when they update it, they will change it to show all 10 new members. In any case, it's more than a reasonable possibility that Estonia will join the Eurozone. To my knowledge, agreeing to join the Eurozone was a condition of their acceptance into the Union. Kairos 13:47, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Including the "Nordic dick" on the 1- and 2-Euro coins, since Norway, as a non-Eu country, was omitted... =P
Ah, yes. Sweden is on the coins as well. Kairos 02:13, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Yes it was a condition, but they must pass the criteria. These countries arent still full members, they have some conditions, they arent has integrated has most of the EU, it is not just the currency. So it can take a lot of time. Greece only get to join 2 years later, but in time for the physical launch. LOL, I just toke an Euro coin of my pocket and, in fact, Sweden and Finland form a dick. LOL. I never noticed! Fantastic, I going to use this has a game for where's wally? with some friends. --Pedro 13:16, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)


Actually the Estonian crown has been tied to the Deutsche Mark, and afterwards the euro, for ages. It shouldn't be a problem for Estonia to join the euro. Luis rib 14:58, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

How could the good people of Estonia choose this mindnumbingly dull design when there were plenty of other good choices available... --Bjarki 19:41, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

I completely agree, there is easily enough interesting stuff in Estonia to have a really good different face for each denomination. Is their government trying to make them the laughing stock of Europe? 86.136.88.33 17:05, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
Lots of other states have rather boring designs, or a single design for all coins (e.g. Ireland's harp). There were better designs, in my opinion, but it's not that bad. —Nightstallion (?) Seen this already? 11:22, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
