2 Euro Spain 2013 Commemorative San Lorenzo del Escorial — 2 Euro Commemorative Spain 2013 San Lorenzo del Escorial

Here we are in 2013 with a new commemorative bimetallic coin. The coin in question was minted in 2013 in honor of the Monastery of San Lorenzo del Escorial, which was commissioned by Philip II as a residence and pantheon for the King of Spain. In 1984, it was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Issued on 1/03/2013.

On the Obverse, we can see the representation of the Monastery, while at the top there is the arch inscription ESPAÑA. Moving down to the right, we can also find the year of minting and the crowned M, the symbol of the Madrid Mint. Surrounding it, as usual, are the 12 five-pointed stars, arranged in a circle, representing the European countries.

Designer: Alfonso Morales Muños

On the Reverse, we find the same face as the other 2 Euro coins, namely the Common Side.
