Why do they still put value's on the coins? My 2008 silver 1oz Philharmonikers have "1,5 euro" on it ... why do they (still) do this?

Re: Why do they still put value's on the coins? To make it illegal to counterfeit them.

Re: Why do they still put value's on the coins? It allows the governments a competitive advantage against private mints. By declaring it to be "legal tender" the coin is excepted from certain import tariffs.

Re: Why do they still put value's on the coins? If they didn't, they would not be coins.
