Interesting fact

The Yves Klein 10 Euro coin was created to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the artist's death. Yves Klein was a French artist known for his work in the medium of monochromatic painting, and this coin features a design inspired by his signature "International Klein Blue" color. The coin's unique blue color was achieved by applying a layer of blue paint to the silver coin blank before striking, resulting in a distinctive and eye-catching finish.
