Talk:Montenegro and the euro

message: After I read the current article "Montenegro and the euro" I came to the conclusion that this page need some modifications, namely a structure and more detailed information. I have created 6 sections: history, coins, economic benefits and challenges, the EU position, Montenegrin position and current status. 
I believe the article lucks some historical background. That's why the first section will be dedicated to the history of Montenegrin currency, in order to trace the pathway from Yugoslav Dinar to Euro currency. In the third section I will highlight the economic benefits and challenges that Montenegro has faced due to its euroization. 
The forth and fifth part will highlight the position of both European union and Montenegro with regard to Montenegro's accession to the EU and its uniliteral decision to use the euro currency, without being an official member of Eurozone. And the last section will be dedicated to the current status of Montenegro concerning its future membership in the EU.
I hope you will find this modification acceptable. Alina Karastamatova (talk) 02:16, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Evaluation of the Article

message: I am not sure I like this - there are no Kosovan euro coins or Montenegrin euro coins (coins from other countries are used) so while have an article? --Rumping (talk) 08:12, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This is a good point. However, Kosovo and Montenegro both use the Euro as their currency. The national banks in both countries are working toward membership in the EMU. If nothing else, it provides an accounting of the current economic policy of both countries.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Theeuro (talk • contribs) 02:22, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

replies: text:  Cases where one nation uses the currency of another nation are less common, and also interesting and useful for economic history. Pufferfyshe (talk) 19:48, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  justification for article existence 

message: Hi. I'd like to know what kind of euro coins were introduced in Montenegro when it adopted this currency. I mean, they introduced the coins from which country? And what sort of coins are most frequently found today? Švitrigaila (talk) 14:36, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Almost only German ones -- same in Kosovo; the reason is they had connections to there (that's why they also had the mark before that). —Nightstallion 02:03, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you. :o) How do you know this? Is it a supposition or an attested fact? Švitrigaila (talk) 13:01, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Attested fact, though it's not something you'll easily find on the internet, I reckon. —Nightstallion 01:36, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: What kind of coins ?

message: Hi, there's a discussion currently ongoing about the potential renaming or merge/redirecting of this and other articles at Talk:United Kingdom euro coins#Crystal Balls that you may want to look at.  I suggest that further discussion remain there.  Thanks. Pfainuk talk 12:24, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Discussion at United Kingdom Euro Coins

message: The article is currently inconsistent and contradicts itself. In the lead, it says "This means that the euro is not a legal tender there, however it is treated as such by the government and the population." But later in section 1.3 Euro it says "Following these events in the beginning of 2002 Montenegro took a decision to officially and unilaterally adopt the euro, first as a parallel legal tender to the Deutsche Mark, and since June 2002 as the only legal tender." So, is the euro, according to Montenegrin laws, legal  tender in Montenegro or not? --Glentamara (talk) 05:38, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Kinda both. "Legal tender" is -these days- presumed to be the Fiat which is "backed" by the repective government/central bank of the state. In this broader meaning Euro is -not- "Legal tender" in Montenegro. At the same, the *original* meaning of "Legal iender" has absolutely nothing to do with Fiat at all. Legal tender can be even peanuts for all it matters. It is just the "thing/things" which are considered as value-exchange tools and THUS are exempt from any taxation and are legally allowed to be accepted by merchants a non-taxable payment for goods. In that meaning, the Euro is definitely "the legal tender" of Montenegro. Pick your poison.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.240.63.78 (talk) 09:59, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: It would be ideal to find good sources that verify that it is indeed the legal tender of Montenegro. What do Montenegrin laws say, is the euro the official currency according to the constitution or just de facto treated so? Koreanovsky (talk) 18:01, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Legal tender or not? 

message: The section "history" contains a lot of pre-euro history, even about the historical Montenegrin perper from 1906 to 1918 which is totally unrelated to this topic. I think it would be better to move such content to a separate article about the history of currency in Montenegro. Koreanovsky (talk) 17:50, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
