Coin Set 10 years of the Euro - 1999-2009

This commemorative numismatic set includes six 2-euro coins, issued in 2008, each honoring the memory of Jean Monnet, an emblematic figure in the construction of Europe.

Each coin features a specific design on its national side, paying tribute to Jean Monnet. The central part of the coin is made of cupro-nickel, while the outer ring is made of nickel brass.

The common side of the 2-euro coins displays the map of Europe, unifying the various member countries of the Eurozone. This representation symbolizes unity and collaboration among European nations.

The year of issue, 2008, is engraved on the national side of each coin, making it easy to identify the production date. The face value, 2 euros, is also indicated.

The set contains six coins, offering a complete collection for numismatists and enthusiasts of European history. The conservation status of the coins is "Brilliant Uncirculated" (BU), which means they have not circulated and have a new and brilliant appearance.

The metal used for the manufacture of these coins is bimetallic, combining two different alloys to create a visual contrast and enhance security. The bimetal is a distinctive element of these commemorative coins.

This set represents a historical and numismatic testimony to Jean Monnet's commitment to a united Europe. It is a valuable collector's item for those interested in European history and numismatics.
