Estonia €2 commemorative 2009 EMU 1999-2009 — coin obverse

Let's move on to the next coin. Specifically, this 2 Euro Commemorative coin from the Netherlands was minted in 2009 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Economic and Monetary Union.

As we can observe, on the Obverse there is a representation of a primitive, stylized figure next to the Euro symbol. The meaning of this design is that the Euro represents the final stage of the economic journey of European citizens.

It is also important to emphasize that the design of the 2 euro Netherlands 2009 was chosen by the European citizens themselves through an online survey.

Above the design, there is the inscription in an arc “NEDERLAND” while below it reads “EMU. 1999-2009”.

On the outermost edge, there are the 12 stars representing the European states. If you pay attention to the sixth star, you can notice that it is enclosed between the symbol of the Utrecht mint (on the right) and that of the mint director (on the left).

As for the Reverse, this is, of course, nothing other than the Common Side, which is the same for all 2 Euro coins.

The coin is included in the FS Divisionale, in a Coincard FDC (issued in 2013), in an FS Box, and in an FS Capsule.
