This set is the second release in the Bundesländer II series, continuing the Bundesländer (Federal States) series issued since 2006 in which Germany has issued a special 2 Euro coin from a Bundesland (province) every year. The theme of the 2024 German 2 Euro is the province of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania), with a national side (obverse) depicting the iconic “Königsstuhl” (King’s Chair) location in the Jasmund National Park.
Germany has five mints which strike circulation coins; they are distinguished by their mint marks - A for Berlin, D for Munich, F for Stuttgart, G for Karlsruhe and J for Hamburg. The set contains five coins with the same design, each struck by a different mint and with its respective mint mark. The quality is BU (Brilliant Uncirculated), which in German is called Stempelglanz. |
