Comment
Interesting fact
The 2 Euro commemorative coin celebrating 30 years of the European Union flag, issued by Italy in 2015, features a unique design that incorporates the EU flag's 12 golden stars and the Italian flag's tricolor colors. The coin's bimetallic composition, with a nickel brass clad nickel center in a copper-nickel ring, gives it a distinctive look and feel. Additionally, the coin's weight of 8.5 grams makes it slightly heavier than a standard 2 Euro coin, which is made of a single metal. This coin is a special collector's item that serves as a symbol of Italy's commitment to the European Union and its values.
