Sets of 2008, 2009 and 2010 general circulation euro coins for sale

On 20 September Banka Slovenije will put on sale sets of 2008, 2009 and 2010 general circulation euro coins. These are coins which to date have only been available in the form of numismatic collections of euro coins for an individual year, and now they will be on sale in rolls of individual denominations, assembled in sets of various sizes. For each year, sets of three sizes will be available. A small set will comprise 320 pieces of circulation coins of the individual year, a medium set will contain 1,600 and a large set will contain 16,000 coins. Purchase and pick-up of all three types of set will be possible at the Banka Slovenije counter, and will be conducted until all stocks are sold.

Following the introduction of the euro, there was major interest in Slovenian euro coins, so at that time Banka Slovenije had a considerable quantity of numismatic collections minted. The collection of coins with the year 2007 was sold out, but a good number of general circulation coins dated 2008, 2009 and 2010 remained. Interest in coins of those years has once again been growing recently, so Banka Slovenije decided to offer coins from those collections to those interested in buying them, in the form of packed rolls of coins.

The sets will offer all eight denominations (from 1 cent to 2 euros) for all three years, in three different sizes of sets. Each set contains coins packed in rolls by individual denominations and years, and they differ from each other by the number of coins of the individual denomination.

• A small set, priced at EUR 177.60 (including VAT), contains 320 circulation coins of a single year, with one roll for each denomination.
• A medium-sized set, priced at EUR 1,164.00 (including VAT), contains 1,600 circulation coins of a single year, i.e. 200 pieces of each denomination as follows: 4 rolls of 1, 2 and 5 cent coins; 5 rolls of 10, 20 and 50 cent coins and 8 rolls of 1 and 2 euros.
• A large set, priced at EUR 10,864.00 (including VAT), contains 16,000 circulation coins of a single year, i.e. 2,000 pieces of each denomination as follows: 40 rolls of 1, 2 and 5 cent coins; 50 rolls of 10, 20 and 50 cent coins and 80 rolls of 1 and 2 euros.

The medium and large sets of circulation coins are available only by prior order at Banka Slovenije, which should be completed in-person at the Banka Slovenije counter at Štefanova ulica 1 or via e-mail at cash@bsi.si. Once an order has been placed, we will arrange for the method and time of pick-up.

No advance ordering is required for the purchase of small sets, but given the limited initial number of small sets we recommend placing an order at cash@bsi.si.

Purchase and pick-up of all three types of set will be possible at the Banka Slovenije counter from 20 September 2021, and will be conducted until all stocks are sold.
