Could you help me on a source where I can easily get some low-valus European coins and notes,as I know in 3 months time;it will all be replaced(well in 12 countries) by the €uro.

You mean for you private collection? I have some, of various currencies.

Would not know anothersource, because here in The Netherlands it is either being taken by banks, or e.g. by a record store company where you can deliver these when bying CD's. Otherwise it will be collected for charity.

Tim, the following link may interest you...

http://www.downtownstamps.bc.ca/sales_coins.html

Look down the bottom of the page when you get there and you'll see a "Europe's Final National Coins" set of 15 coins, 1 from each of the member states of the EU. It looks like a pretty neat set and at a good price. Also, be sure to check ebay - there are always tons of coins/notes on there, I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for.

This EU set is also up for grabs on ebay (not much difference in price between this one and the one above), here is the link if you'd like to have a look at it as well...

Hope that helps. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubb/smilies/images/icons/smile.gif

Go into a travel agents and tell them you're going to [insert country here] and ask whether you can buy some of the countries currency. I do it over here when buying US$.

Another good idea, yes. Or you could do this at a Foreign Exchange or Currency Exchange (whatever you call it there). Places like Thomas Cook for instance. Again, you might call it something different there.
