Two Euro 2024 Frankfurt Constitution, Coin from Germany - detailed information

"The foreground of the obverse shows the Paulskirche memorial site from a unique visual perspective, watching the representatives of the constituent National Assembly file into the church. Behind this is the paper upon which the Constitution is written and a quill pen, representing the outcome achieved by the Frankfurt Parliament. The image is crowned by three female allegories: Unity, Justice and Freedom, and the black, red and gold tri-colour flag of Germany. The design with its dynamic and lively relief intrigues the onlooker, capturing the timeless nature of the basic democratic principles that were laid down for the first time in this defining moment."

The monogram of the designer BB (for Bodo Broschat) is at the base of the church.

Around above, the inscription PAULSKIRCHENVERFASSUNG 1849 ("Constitution of Saint Paul's Church, 1849").

Below left, the letter D for the issuing country (abbreviated from Deutschland - Germany). Below right, the date of issue 2024. The mint mark (A, D, G, F, or J) is in the lower right field, below the 4 in 1849.

In the outer ring, the twelve stars of the European Union, representing the twelve original member states.

The reverse of the coin shows on the right a representation of a map of the western part of Europe.

Behind the map and interrupted by it, six vertical lines connect the twelve stars of Europe - six around above right, and six around below right.

On the left, a large numeral value: 2; on the right, overlaid on the map, the denomination EURO.

The designer's monogram LL (for Luc Luycx) is below right in the rim, below the O in EURO.
