But if you use such coin on the street nobody will know it's issued only for fellow numismatics... :)
I think they should be marked on Numista catalog as circulation coin... they look as all other circulation coins!

it's not about the looks ....
and it's not about Numista.
These are only issued for collectors. If someone decided to use it in circulation, it's up to him. Doesn't mean that this is a circulation coin.
A circulation coin is coin that's intended and put into circulation by the central bank
I wonder what that makes USSR 1958 coins, which circulated unintentionally :)
They struck the coins in anticipation of a planned financial reform, but then plans changed, the reform was postponed for 3 years (until 1961), and the entire 1958 issue was ordered to be melted. But, a small number of these coins did get released into circulation by mistake and these are now worth a small fortune.

As I know ALL Euro (1 €, 2 €) and Eurocent (1 c, 2 c, 5 c, 10 c, 20 c, 50 c) coins are meant for circulation.
I know that this coin is issued in coincard (below), but it is circulation coin, right?

Many coins from microstates (Vatican city, San Marin and Monaco) are struck for collector sets only, not for circulation. Some people break sets and sell the individual coins but that doesn't make them circulating.
