This 2 euro commemorative coin, issued by San Marino in 2022, pays tribute to Piero della Francesca, also known as Pietro Borghese. Struck in bimetallism, it consists of a cupro-nickel center and a cupronickel ring.
The coin weighs 8.5 grams and has a diameter of 25.75 millimeters, with a thickness of 2.20 millimeters. It is struck in Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) quality and is presented in an official blister pack.
The central theme of this edition is the portrait of Federico da Montefeltro, Duke of Urbino. The design reflects the codes of portraits of the time, drawing inspiration from contemporary numismatic traditions for its profile representation. This approach highlights the distinctive features of the Duke, emphasizing the historical and cultural importance of the character.
The edge of the coin is finely crafted, featuring a series of repeated motifs. It includes the inscription of the number 2, followed by a star, repeated six times. The orientation of these motifs alternates between right side up and upside down, adding a visual complexity to the edge.
The mintage of this commemorative coin is limited to 54,000 copies. This quantity underscores the exclusive nature of this issue, intended for collectors and numismatics enthusiasts.
