Money of great value: Euro coins from Monaco are a jackpot
Money
from some regions of Europe is particularly
valuable
.
The state of Monaco is one of these regions, according to Merkur.de *.
From a coinage from the small state only about 20,001 pieces are in circulation.
That makes them the smallest two-euro coin edition, which in turn makes them popular with collectors.
The 2 euro coins date from 2007. They were made in memory of Princess Gracia Patricia of Monaco.
Her portrait also adorns the reverse of the coin.
Collectors pay around 2000 euros for the coin, according to n-tv.
According to our research, this is now also available on the Internet for over 3000 euros.
Money for certain coins: You can also expand your wealth with money from the Vatican
Not only
money
from Monaco has a higher
value
.
Coins from the Vatican are also traded in the four-digit range on ebay.de.
Similar to Monaco, the Vatican is also not part of the EU.

However, there is a special permit for both states to bring a certain quota of
euros
into circulation
.
Since January 1st, 2010, an agreement between the Vatican and the EU has stipulated that at least 51 percent of the Vatican coins must be in circulation.
High value in the wallet: Bills are sometimes also highly traded
But not only
coins
-
money
can be sold on at high prices under certain circumstances.
In contrast to the coins, it does not depend on certain productions, editions or origin.
With
euro
notes, collectors pay more attention to special features.
These appear mainly in the serial numbers, according to n-tv.
A long sequence of numbers, rhythmic repetitions or a date are popular features in the serial number.
On Ebay, notes are sometimes traded in the four-digit range.
For example, a 5 euro note dated May 19, 1951 is offered here for 2500 euros.
However, it is unclear whether this will be sold at the price.
Errors with high value: incorrect coins are very popular with collectors
Bad productions are particularly popular with collectors.
Whether it is the wrong symbol, the edge is too deep or even an out-of-round shape.
Anything out of the norm is of potential value to collectors.
A prominent example comes from Italy: A bidder
paid
a
full 6,000
euros
for a one
cent
coin.
One cent can be seen here on one side.
But on the other the symbol of the Italian two cents coin.
Around 100 of this misprint are in circulation, as reported by Pulse 4.
But even less well-known misprints can already be of some
value
.
Overall rather rare in Germany: Less than one percent of the coins are faulty
For example, a Europe map that is too small on a
coin
can lead to a value of up to 600 euros, as Merkur.de reports.
Overall, mistakes in the German mints are rather rare.
In the Bavarian Main Mint, just 0.3 percent of the coins are faulty, according to n-tv.
Anyone who suspects
they own
money
with collector's value should in any case determine the current value before selling the piece.
The first point of contact here can be the nearest coin dealer.
Here, however, the editors recommend that you always get a second opinion from another expert.
A look at online auctions can provide an initial overview.
