The coin represents the euro's position after 10 years of circulation in the euro zone.
At the center of the coin is the Earth, with the face value "100 Euro". Economic players are represented all around the planet by various symbols: the European Central Bank by the ECB headquarters, ecology and energy by the wind turbines, industry by the factory, cities by the houses, European citizens by the people and trade by the ship.
The inscription "10 YEARS OF THE EURO" appears on the upper part of the coin, while the anniversary dates "2002" and "2012" appear above the Earth.
The design is similar to the common commemorative 2 euro coins, and was chosen from five pre-selected designs by citizens and residents of the European Union, who voted online. It is the work of Helmut Andexlinger, professional designer at the Austrian Mint. His initials "A.H." can be seen below the representation of the ECB headquarters.
