Interesting fact
The 2 Euro Bernini coin from San Marino features a unique bimetallic design, with a nickel brass clad nickel center in a copper-nickel ring. This interesting fact is that the coin's bimetallic composition was specifically chosen to create a visually striking contrast between the two metals, with the nickel center representing the light and the copper-nickel ring representing the dark. This design element not only adds aesthetic value to the coin but also symbolizes the balance and harmony that San Marino aims to achieve in its political and economic endeavors.
