One reason I was sad to see the advent of the Euro was that it got rid of Italian Lira coins. I'd only been to Italy once, but I loved that 500 Lira coin because it was bimetallic, like an old NYC subway token. If you've ever wondered how they make bimetallic coins, here's the process.
Have you an opinion, used or been to this object or place? Tell us what you like don't like about it, or post any specs/info about it:
