Slovakia €2 Economic and Monetary Union 2009 — Value and Rarity

The second coin of this collection is the 2 Euro Commemorative coin from Slovakia minted in 2009 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU).

On the Obverse, we can observe the representation of a stylized primitive human figure next to the Euro symbol. This design indicates the euro (and thus the EMU) as the final step in human economic progress, from bartering to a single currency. It is noteworthy that this design was directly chosen by European citizens through a survey.

Above in an arc is the inscription “SLOVENSKO” while to the left is the symbol of the Kremnica Mint “MK” (Mincovňa Kremnica). At the bottom, we can see the inscription “EMU 1999-2009” (Hospodárskej a Menovej únie). All around the coin are the usual 12 five-pointed stars representing European states.

As for the Reverse, it is practically identical to that of any other 2 Euro coin, as it features the Common Side.

The coin is included in a Coincard FDC
