10 euro coin (legal tender) for the 10th anniversary of gay marriage in France
Sauce
Colour coins? That's cursed.
Hah, that probably pissed off a lot of people. I love it.
You know what pissed a lot of people and felt VERY good? When the girl who sang the French hymn at the Paris Olympics opening was black. Oh boy did it feel right
I bet there are some people out there who refuse to accept these coins as change, lest they catch "The Gay".
I get it (and it makes me happy, too), but would I would like to see is nobody getting pissed off. I know it will never happen in my lifetime, but I wish I could see that coin being as innocuous as Abraham Lincoln on a penny
That wildly political figure? For real though, with all the confederate flags I’m surprised it isn’t more controversial
They probably just know saying "Ew, I dont want no tyrant Lincoln on my money" looks really bad even now
What the fuck? 10 year anniversary? That hurts
Zoomer posting?
They're probably surprised that it's only been legal for ten years
I'm heartbroken
10 euro coins are pretty common across Europe, but only legal tender in the issuing country.
