I've read somewhere that there are variations in the position of the bee mint mark on 1999 French 2c coins.  Is this an example of that variation, or is the difference more noticeable?

If you're interested in variations of the France 2 cents 1999:

 

 

 

I have to say they go very far in that catalog, but they don't mention anything about the position of the mint mark (high - low), only about the orientation of the bee mint mark, but maybe that's what you've read somewhere.

 

There's also a website with everything about the euro but not everything is accessible if you're not a member. The variations are not accessible for instance, but the pictures are much better than in the catalog, https://www.amisdeleuro.org/fr/150

The combination of the different obverses, reverses and positions give 12 different variations, as you can see on the website too:

They all have a detailed sheet, but again only visible for members.

 

By the way, there's a  big coin fair in Houten again on Saturday 19 April, maybe I'll see you again there.

Many thanks for the information.

 

Yes, it was very good to meet up with you too at Houten.  Hopefully, I can get back in April.
