In any case each coin represents an important historical event, a character or a famous and significant place or a European event to commemorate. Almost all of them are dedicated to the most majestic monuments of the most important German cities.

Let’s say from the beginning that every value reported in this page refers to the commemorative in Brilliant Uncirculated. In fact the circulated coins, almost all of them, never exceed their nominal value of 2€.
