Description of the 2 Euro 100th Anniversary of Helmut Schmidt's Birth 2018
Another commemorative coin from 2018, this one is not dedicated to any monument, but rather to a historical figure, the German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt, marking 100 years since his birth (1918/2015). Issued on 30/01/2018.
On the Obverse of the bimetallic coin, Helmut Schmidt is depicted with a focused expression and his hand prominently displayed, along with the signature of Bodo Broschat BB.
To the right of the portrait, above the shoulder, are the dates 1918-2015, along with one of the 5 mint marks (A/D/F/G/J). To the left, below the ear, is the symbol D (Deutschland) and the year 2018.
Surrounding the coin at equal distances are the European stars forming a circle, similar to the logo of Europe itself.
On the Reverse, the characteristic Common Side is minted on every 2 euro coin.
