Quote from: quaziright on August 20, 2018, 09:40:50 PMI believe there is a slovenian pre euro coin with a worm on it

Do you mean this? It's an olm - a blind salamander. Worms don't have hands and feet - at least not where I live.  ;)

pff minor details. I was next thinking maybe poland 2 zlote, but then I checked this time and those were actually eels

Yes, I remember the Polish eels. However, they were on collector coins, while the Slovenian coin was a circulation piece.

There are several coins with Incense burners but not sure of any that actually show the smoke as well.

The ball point pen is not a unique theme.  A 1995 crown with the image of Lazlo Biro and some people using a ball point pen was issued by the Isle of Man as part of a series of coins celebrating the inventions of the modern world.

Yes.  I was responding to that very coin of Hungary from a post on page one of this thread that claimed this as unique.  That is why I posted about the IOM coin.  The Hungary coin does not have a unique theme.
