DESIGN CONTEST FOR COIN COMMEMORATING THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE EURO

"To celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the launch of
Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) and the creation of the
euro, all euro-area countries will issue a commemorative
2-euro coin with a common design. It will be available at
the beginning of 2009.

A design competition between the mints of the euro area has
resulted in the pre-selection by the Mint Directors of 5
designs, presented here. The final winning design will be
selected exclusively by your votes via this web page.

"The selection is open to all EU citizens and residents.
Each person may only vote once. A prize of a set of
high-value euro collector coins will go to a participant
chosen at random from those who voted for the winning
design. Voting will be closed on 22 February 2008."
