euro coins and banknotes became legal tender in most countries of the eurozone on 1 january 2002. although one side of the coins is used for different national marks for each country, all coins and all banknotes are legal tender throughout the eurozone. therefore, it is possible to find irish euro coins in greece and finnish euro coins in portugal, for instance. although some eurozone countries do not put 1 cent and 2 cent coins into general circulation (prices in those countries are by general understanding always rounded to whole multiples of 5 cent), 1 cent and 2 cent coins from other eurozone countries remain legal tender in those countries.
