Many European states have refused use of national currencies and send to the official currency of the European Union - Euro. The DM, the Dutch gulden, the French franc, etc. currencies as economic unit does not exist any more. It is not simply next denomination, change of design or improvement of signs on protection - now the whole currencies which were used for thousand years send to symbolical area, became memory, history, a myth...

 

Today, former national European currencies can be named " Currencies phantoms ". Within the limits of the project "Monetization" issue of currencies of the states of euros entering into a zone - " currencies of phantoms ", with unique now face value is made, namely on a reverser is written 0 - the Zero that gives them ligitims. In the existence of money and, in particular coins, pass some stages as elements economic mechanism.

 

Been born as a strict financial equivalent and a criterion of a material assets, the coin drifts aside symbolical down to currency reform which deprives with its direct material assets and allocates symbolical (memory of an epoch, historical or personal value) which among collectors-numismatists often turns back in material. As symbolical value, among collectors, a coin continues to be a part of an economic exchange, and here its value grows in conformity its antiquity and the importance. It is the extremely important to note, that the work of art experiences similar collisions in the history.
