Germany 2013 50th anniversary of the signing of the Élysée Treaty COLORED (any random mint)
50th anniversary of the signing of the Élysée Treaty
The coin, which was
designed by Yves Sampo (Monnaie de Paris), Stefanie Lindner (Berlin State
Mint), Alina Hoyer (Berlin) and Sneschana Russewa-Hoyer (Berlin), depicts
stylised portraits of the signatories to the Élysée Treaty (Konrad Adenauer,
then Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, and Charles de Gaulle,
former President of the French Republic) above their respective signatures on
either side of the words “50 ANS JAHRE” and the year “2013” in the centre. The
words “TRAITÉ DE L’ÉLYSÉE” and “ÉLYSÉE-VERTRAG” are centred along the top and
bottom edge, respectively, of the inner part of the coin. On the right-hand
inner edge below the portrait of Adenauer, the inner part also features the
mint mark (“A”, “D”, “F”, “G” or “J”, depending on the mint concerned), as well
as the letter “D” to denote the issuing country. The coin’s outer ring bears
the 12 stars of the European Union.
