Something about what seems to be a 2 Euro coins with the coloured image of Notre-Dame de Paris on fire.
it is in a blister with the writing about the fire in German, but
there is no indication of the year nor of the mint on the coins. Thus I am assuming that it is a kind of token.
Am I right? Or is it a true coin? And in this case, who isssued it?
Thanks for your help

Photographs would be a great help.
I'm just a collector of coins, not a slave to it, unless I am in a coin shop.
For all you banknote collectors. Link to my swap list.

How horrible.
Be kind to people. Sharing is Caring. Collect what you like and not by the Crowd.
To seek for perfection, it is too painful and there is a very high price to pay. To seek for something comfortable is more easy. To seek for nothing is even more easy.
But dou you know if they are truly coins or just medals?
and in the first case, who emitted them and in which years?

I found another one :8D

Probably issued on 2019 otherwise they would have been soothsayers B.
All these are fantasy tokens

Are they "fantasy tokens" or just aftermarket painted coins? Not sure of the diffference, if there is one.

I assume it's a company trying to capitalize on the fire by painting coins and selling them for obscene profit...?

Or maybe a fund-raising effort for repairs...?

PS: here are some painted coins from my collection. I keep meaning to post them for swap. This thread just reminded me!

These colored tokens are non authorized issues form a german or french private manufacturer, contrarily to the "Monnaie de Paris" which issued medals to the profit of the reconstruction
