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.
