This is wrong. We do not count, but build cardinal numbers here. And there you have "Ein Euro" "Ein Element" "Ein Kind" and not "Eins Euro" "Eins Element" "Eins Kind" - this would be simply wrong. The femininum form is simply derived from the masculine form by appending an "e". "Eine Frau" "Eine Bahn"... The neuter form is the same as the masculine form. Also in plural forms, you have "Einhundertein Fussballfans" "Einhundertein Gesetze" and not "Einhunderteins Fussballfans" "Einhunderteins Gesetze"
