Description of the 2 Euro National and University Library 2024

2 Euro Slovenia 2024 National and University Library — Slovenia €2 commemorative 2024 2 Euro Slovenia 2024 – National and University Library — coin obverse

In 2024, on the occasion of the 250th Anniversary of the National and University Library in Ljubljana, Slovenia will mint a €2 commemorative coin that pays tribute to a symbolic element of the Library itself. Coin to be issued in 2024

The design that wins the competition organized by the Bank of Slovenia features on the Obverse of the coin a stylization of one of the two handles of the National and University Library with the mythological winged horse Pegasus stylized. At the top of the coin, the inscription NARODNA IN UNIVERZITETNA KNJIŹNICA | 1774 is engraved. At the bottom, the inscription SLOVENIJA | 2024 is engraved.

The homage to Pegasus refers to a Roman-style detail of the Library's entrance.
Specifically, it is the stylization of one of the 2 handles of the main door of the library. The knob handle is stylized in the shape of a horse's head, a clear reference to Pegasus, the mythological winged horse that serves as a guide for all visitors to the library. A symbolic welcome on the journey into the world of knowledge and culture.

The date 1774 refers to the decree of Empress Maria Theresa of Austria that established the new library in 1774, following a tragic and unfortunate fire that destroyed the Jesuit college library in Levstikov Square.
