Dutch Euro Coins - Future Changes To National Sides

Future Changes To National Sides

The Commission of the European Communities issued a recommendation on 19 December 2008, a common guideline for the national sides and the issuance of euro coins intended for circulation. One section of this recommendation stipulates that:

Article 4. Design of the national sides:
"The national side of the euro coins intended for circulation should bear the 12 European stars that should fully surround the national design, including the year mark and the indication of the issuing Member State's name. The European stars should be depicted as on the European flag."

Dutch euro coins do not comply with this recommendation. However, the design on the Dutch euro coins isn't required to be changed.

Famous quotes containing the words future, national and/or sides:

    After the final no there comes a yes
    And on that yes the future world depends.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Five o’clock tea” is a phrase our “rude forefathers,” even of the last generation, would scarcely have understood, so completely is it a thing of to-day; and yet, so rapid is the March of the Mind, it has already risen into a national institution, and rivals, in its universal application to all ranks and ages, and as a specific for “all the ills that flesh is heir to,” the glorious Magna Charta.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    With impressive proof on all sides of magnificent progress, no one can rightly deny the fundamental correctness of our economic system.
    Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
