Pourquoi cette pièce

Ce que c'est

The 2 Euro commemorative coin issued by Italy in 2022 for the 170th anniversary of the Polizia di Stato, the Italian national police: a female officer and a male officer in front of their patrol car. It is legal tender throughout the Eurozone. This specimen is in Proof grade, the collector's strike, delivered in a presentation box.

Sa rareté

⁣⁢10,000 Proof coins, compared to 20,000 BU and 2,970,000 in circulation strike quality, totaling 3,000,000. This is a collector's mintage, not a rarity: a low mintage helps, but it does not guarantee an increase, and the market for modern commemoratives remains narrow.⁤⁣

Pour qui

For those who want the collector's version of this 2-euro coin and wish to keep it in its presentation box, for collectors of Italian 2-euro coins completing their Proof series, and for giving a souvenir of the Italian police anniversary to a numismatics enthusiast.

Avers

Two State Police officers, a woman and a man, stand out in the foreground before a police car. The inscription POLIZIA DI STATO forms an arc at the top; to the right, the monogram RI of the Italian Republic; to the left, the letter R from the Rome mint, the initials AM of the designer, and the dates 1852 - 2022. On the Proof coin, the relief is sandblasted and matte on a mirror-polished background. Design: Annalisa Masini.

L'histoire

On July 11, 1852, King Victor Emmanuel II of Sardinia created the corps of public safety guards, by law n° 1404: this is the origin of the Italian police. The current Polizia di Stato was established in 1981, when law 121 made it a civilian body.

To mark the institution's 170th anniversary, Italy minted a 2-Euro commemorative coin in 2022, with a Proof version reserved for collectors. Its unique feature is the strike: the background is diamond-polished to a mirror finish, while the relief is sandblasted and remains matte.

This Proof coin has a mintage of only 10,000 pieces and comes in a presentation box.

Notre avis de marchand

Of the 3,000,000 coins minted, only 10,000 are Proof, which is nearly three hundred times less than circulation quality. What Proof offers is the strike: a mirror-polished field, a sandblasted and matte relief, a contrast that circulation coins lack, and a presentation case designed for preservation. A low mintage helps, but does not guarantee an increase in value.
A trap: do not confuse it with the BU (Brilliant Uncirculated) version in a coincard, with a mintage of 20,000, which retains the luster of a standard strike. Keep the Proof (BE) in its presentation box, without touching the surface, and never clean it: cleaning destroys the contrast.

Le détail des contrôles

Pesez-la : 8,50 g ± 0,10. Mesurez-la : 25,75 mm ± 0,05 et 2,20 mm d'épaisseur. Testez l'aimant : l'anneau ne colle pas, le centre est faiblement attiré. Vérifiez la tranche : le « 2 » et les deux étoiles doivent être en creux et régulièrement espacés ; les contrefaçons moulées laissent une couture visible sur la tranche.

Réponses directes

Questions sur la pièce 4

⁣⁢What is the value of the 2-euro Polizia di Stato coin in Proof quality?⁤⁣

Its value lies in its Proof quality and mintage: only 10,000 examples, compared to 2,970,000 in standard quality. An intact presentation box is what collectors seek; the market for modern commemoratives remains narrow, and nothing guarantees an increase.

⁣⁢What is the mintage of the 2 Euro Polizia di Stato Proof?⁤⁣

10,000 coins in Proof. The total mintage for the coin is 3,000,000: 2,970,000 in standard quality, 20,000 in BU, and 10,000 in Proof.

⁣⁢What is the advantage of Proof quality compared to a circulating coin?⁤⁣

A collector's strike: a mirror-polished background and a sandblasted relief, which stands out as matte. The circulating coin, struck in nearly 3 million pieces, has the standard finish. In addition, there is the presentation case and a mintage of 10,000.

⁣⁢Who designed the coin?⁤⁣

Annalisa Masini, engraver for the IPZS, whose initials AM appear below the design. The common reverse is by Luc Luycx.

Questions sur l'achat 3

⁣⁢In what packaging is the coin delivered?⁤⁣

In a presentation box, with individual protection, in a neutral package without mention of the contents.

⁣⁢Can I return the coin?⁤⁣

Yes. 14-day returns.

⁣⁢Is this a good gift idea?⁤⁣

Oui. Moderne, peu chère, et elle s'intègre dans la série France que vous pouvez compléter à votre rythme.
