Latvia Getting Ready for Euro...! February 18, 2009

Well, looking around some Central Bank websites this week checking on new issues I ran across that of the Central Bank of Latvia.
They are expecting to join the Euro issuing countries in 2010 or 2011, but have already held a design competion and have a set of country side designs. I will be looking forward to them when they hit circulation in a few years.
Very nice!
George
