2 EURO CC ITALY 2007 TREATY OF ROME |
Feature: 50th anniversary of the Treaty of Rome
Description: The coin shows the Treaty document signed by the six founding countries on a background evocating the paving (designed by Michelangelo) of the Piazza del Campidoglio in Rome, where the signing took place on 25 March 1957. ‘Treaty of Rome 50 years’, ‘EUROPE’ and the name of the issuing country appear in the respective languages of the euro area or in Latin. Thus, the legend differs from country to country, but the image is the same.
The Treaty of Rome established the European Economic Community and ultimately led to the introduction of the euro in 1999 and euro banknotes and coins in 2002. The anniversary will be celebrated on 25 March 2007. The euro area countries have decided to mark the occasion by jointly issuing this commemorative coin. Its design was selected following a competition organised by the European mints.

Issuing date: 25 March 2007

Many 2 Euro coins had two version: the normal one and the one with edge reversed . The first one is when, reading the sign on the edge, the national face is on the top. The another is when, reading the sign on the edge, the common face is on the top.
Euro coins incorporate high-security machine-readable characteristics. They
can be used in vending machines throughout the euro area - no matter where they
were issued.
- Sophisticated bi-metal and sandwich technologies have been incorporated
into the €1 and €2 coins.
- The material of the 10, 20 and 50 cent coins is a unique alloy (Nordic
gold), which is difficult to melt and used exclusively for coins.
Lettering around the edge of the €2 coin and the use of a unique metal
composition for the 10, 20 and 50 cent coins protects them against
counterfeiting.
