Greek Euro Coins - Future Changes To National Sides

Future Changes To National Sides

The European Commission 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 2. Identification of the issuing Member State:

The national sides of all denominations of the euro coins intended for circulation should bear an indication of the issuing Member State by means of the Member State’s name or an abbreviation of it.

A new design on the Greek euro coins is expected in the near future to comply with these new guidelines, although nothing has officially been announced.

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

    In no nation are the institutions of progress more advanced. In no nation are the fruits of accomplishment more secure. In no nation is the government more worthy of respect. No country is more loved by its people. I have an abiding faith in their capacity, integrity and high purpose. I have no fears for the future of our country. It is bright with hope.
    Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)

    National isolation breeds national neurosis.
    Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)

    I have no spur
    To prick the sides of my intent, but only
    Vaulting ambition, which o’erleaps itself,
    And falls on th’ other.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
