Description

Poste San Marino SpA – Philatelic and Numismatic Division has issued a special packaging containing the eight standard euro denominations along with two commemorative 2-euro coins from the year 2024, all in proof quality.

The commemorative 2-euro coins celebrate the:

50th Anniversary of the Declaration of Citizens’ Rights and of the Fundamental Principles of the San Marino Legal System, and
530th Anniversary of the Death of Ghirlandaio.

The obverse and reverse designs of the eight standard denominations (2 euro, 1 euro, 50 cent, 20 cent, 10 cent, 5 cent, 2 cent, 1 cent) are identical to those currently in circulation.

The first commemorative coin features on the obverse an open book with the inscription "I DIRITTI DELLA PERSONA UMANA SONO INVIOLABILI" (“The rights of the human person are inviolable”), a quote from Article 5 of Law No. 59 of 8 July 1974. The design is completed by the silhouettes of the Statue of Liberty and the Public Palace, along with the inscription SAN MARINO.

The second commemorative coin depicts on the obverse a detail from the “Adoration of the Shepherds”, preserved in the Sassetti Chapel of the Basilica of Santa Trinita in Florence.
