He euro came into force in 1999 and since then, the coins have been renewed, depending on the designs of each member country of the monetary unit in the Union.
In 2024, new coins have been launched, designed by Belgiumby Germany and also by Spain, which specifically has designed two models of two-euro coins.
Germany has also designed two coins. The first of them is the work of the artist Michael Otto and represents the landscape land Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, specifically a characteristic spot in the Jasmund National Park, on the island of Rügen. In more detail, the emblematic ‘Königsstuhl’ is depicted.
These are the largest steep Cretaceous cliffs in Germany and beech forests, and you can also see the figure of a hiker in the background strolling along the edge of the Baltic Sea.
🪙 The Ministry of Finance has designed and minted, through the National Mint and Stamp Factory, a new two-euro commemorative coin dedicated to Seville.

The second coin commemorates the 175th anniversary of the Frankfurt Constitution, known as the Constitution of St. Paul’s Church, the church seen on the coin, designed by Bodo Broschat.
The Belgian currency, the work of Iris Bruijns, shows twenty-seven swallows, which symbolize the member states of the EU, and one bird, which denote the union and collaboration between the countries. At the bottom, the mint’s master’s mark (an Erlenmeyer flask) and the mint mark (Mercury’s staff) are displayed.
As for Spain, one of them commemorates the 200th anniversary of the National Police. It will have an image of the emblem of the Corps, which will be accompanied at the top in a circular sense and capital letters with the legend ‘NATIONAL POLICE 1824-2024’, while at the bottom, also in a circular direction and in capital letters, the legend SPAIN will appear.
The second coin is dedicated to Seville, specifically for hosting three places declared World Heritage by UNESCO in 1987: the Real Alcázar, the Cathedral and the Archive of the Indies.
