Legal tender
[edit]Ehrenkater, you've added the question legal tender? in the sentence some of these are official coins, some not. As I'm not a native English speaker... I don't understand the question. Do you doubt the sentence or do you want a source? Dqfn13 (talk) 13:04, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
I was just seeking to clarify what was meant by "official coins". They are all issued by the Mint, so in that sense they are all official. Do you mean that certain of the coins can (by law) be used to pay for goods in a shop? (in which case legal tender is the correct expression to use)? Or maybe you mean something else? ----Ehrenkater (talk) 16:25, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
Have just looked at the Dutch language version - should have done so earlier - and it implies that ALL these commemorative coins are wettig betaalmiddel i.e legal tender, not just some. ----Ehrenkater (talk) 19:40, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
- All coins minted by the Mint are indeed legal tender, i.e. legal to pay with. The Mint also makes medallions, but they are not a form of currency. As the Dutch Wikipedia is my main wiki I'm not that active here, so I'm sorry for my very late reaction. Dqfn13 (talk) 20:19, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
