The year 2022 marks two major European events. The first of January 2022 marks the 20th anniversary of the introduction of the euro, which replaced the franc and became the European currency of the member countries of the euro zone. In addition, France will preside over the Council of the European Union in 2022, 13 years after its last presidency. It is against this backdrop of unprecedented major events that the national face of the French €1 and €2 currencies is being changed, two decades after the introduction of the European currency.

This miniset highlights the new design of the €1 and €2 coins officially put into circulation to mark the 20th anniversary of the euro. It contains the 8 French circulating coins, dated 2022 and minted in Universal Brilliant quality.

Minted in a limited edition of 500, this miniset contains the exclusive new €1 and €2 coins designed by Joaquin Jiménez, Engraver General of the Monnaie de Paris. The new €1 coin is produced exclusively for this series and for the BE 2022 series.
