Description

Official Cyprus coin set of 9 coins, dedicated to Paphos mosaics and including commemorative 2 euro EMU coin.

The 1, 2 and 5-cent coins show the moufflon, a species of wild sheep found on Cyprus and representative of the island's wildlife.

Featured on the 10, 20 and 50-cent coins is the Kyrenia ship, a trading vessel as a symbol of Cyprus's seafaring history.

The €1 and €2 coins depict a cruciform idol from the Chalcolithic period (3000 BC), which reflects Cyprus's place at the heart of civilisation and antiquity.
