2009 Slovakia 1 Euro Cent

This only the second Slovakian coin that I have and I found this one on the floor of a department store. The last coin from Slovakia I found was at the time the most common. It is not a coincident that this coin featured today is the new most common.


While 90 or 89 million may seem low for most countries but with a population of about 5.5 million that is a lot of cents that hardly get used. Like most industrial modern nations the use of small change like 1 and 2 cent coins is low. As a result these coins are dismissed and are regarded as a nuisance. 

On the front is all those typical Euro coin features like denomination, the globe, and Euro-zone map. On the reverse is Slovensko (Slovakia), the Krivan Peak in the Tatras, the coat of arms, and mint mark with initials.

Here's the stats...
Type/Country: 1 Euro Cent / Slovakia
Year: 2009
Mintage: 90,744,900
Metal: Copper Plated Steel: 94.35% Steel 5.65% Copper
Value: $0.05 in Very-Fine

Do you have coin from Slovakia and want to know its value? Leave a comment/question and I will do my best to find out the price and history for you.

No idea.

Looks fake or like a medal or mason coin.

The double headed eagle has drumsticks and the reverse has English letters.
