Cyprus €2 EURO 2012 — Value and Rarity

The next 2 Euro Commemorative coin from Cyprus, also in circulation in all Euro countries, was minted in 2012 in honor of the 10 years of Euro banknotes and coins.

On the Obverse, we can indeed observe a very particular design. In this case, we are talking about a design chosen by European citizens through an online survey.

Specifically, the design depicts the Euro symbol placed at the center of the globe, to emphasize the importance of the currency for Europe.

All around are various elements that reinforce this concept. We can observe, for example, human figures indicating citizens, a ship representing trade, a factory symbolizing industry, and finally a wind turbine symbolizing energy.

At the top, the inscription “KYΠPOΣ KIBRIS” is engraved, while at the bottom are the dates “2002 – 2012”. On the outer edge, as usual, there are the 12 five-pointed stars representing the European states. The Reverse is identical to that of any other 2 Euro coin from Cyprus and beyond.

The coin is included in the FDC 2012 Divisionale, in an FDC Capsule and in an FS Box.

• The value of the 2 Euro Commemorative coin from Cyprus minted in 2012 to celebrate the 10 years of Euro banknotes and coins is €3.50.
