      I’m from Portugal and I throw all the 1 and 2 cent coins in the trash, they’re just stupid. I’ll be carrying 4x 1 cent coins in my pocket for 7 months, and when I finally get an extra cent, those 4 other coins are in some other pants. Screw that, right to ~~jail~~ trash

      Tons of errors on the map, Luxembourg, Andorra, Vatican, Monaco, San Marino, Kosovo, and Montenegro use the euro. Anyway, I wish the 1 cent or 2 cent coins had never existed, nor the 500 euro bill, and I also wish the exchange rates of local currencies prior to the euro had been closer to 100 or 200, and not intermediate values that caused a brutal increase in prices.

      I’m absolutely certain that Malta uses euros. It even has its own 1c and 2c coins minted.

      To be clear, having the coin does not mean using the coin. I think I haven’t seen a coin lower than 20 cents in 5 years

      The best thing Stephen Harper did during his ten years in power was get rid of the penny.

      You can pay with 1c and 2c coins in Finland. All prices (if paid by cash) are rounded to the closest 5c so you have to have like 5 x 1c or 1 x 1c + 2 x 2c to have any use for those, though. And you never get them as change so they are not really circulating. They used to mint some for collectors every year, maybe they still do.

      1-2c being useless, map edition. The map does not reflect reality tho, there’s a difference between countries minting 1-2c coins and countries using them, especially since there’s several countries using euro without minting anything or delegating minting to other central banks.
