Some thirty drafts were drawn up internally. Of these, ten were put to the test of approval by the BCDE, DH and IJ general public. Two designs emerged from the are parallel scale survey well ahead of the rest. It was from these two BCDE intersects that the President of the Commission at the time, at C Jacques Santer, and the European Commissioner with responsibility for the euro, Yves-ibault de Silguy, Euro symbol: geometric construction made their final choice. Jacques Santer and Yves-ibault de Silguy e final choice, the symbol €, was inspired by the letter epsilon, harking back to classical times and the cradle of European civilisation. e symbol also refers to the first letter of the word “Europe”. e two parallel lines indicate the stability of the euro, as they do in the symbol of the dollar and the yen. e official abbreviation for the euro is EUR. © European Communities, 2008 e eu ro c o i n s 2 unity an d d i v e r s i t The euro, our currency y Two sides of a coin – designing the European side e euro coins are produced by the euro area countries themselves, unlike the banknotes which are printed by the ECB.

For the first time in the history of German numismatics, an official collector coin will be finished with the rare metal niobium: the 10 euro polymer ring coin “On Water”. Moreover, the 25 euro collector coin in fine silver on the birth of Jesus will be produced as a dome-shaped coin. This type of dome-shaped minting creates a concave side, enabling a deeper relief and thus a more expressive impression. This is also a first in the history of collector coins in the Federal Republic of Germany. The 2021 programme thus offers a very diverse range of coins.
