⁣⁢Why this coin⁤⁣

Ce que c'est

Germany issued this 2-Euro commemorative coin on January 30, 2015, for the state of Hesse: it is the tenth coin in the "Länder" series. The design features the Paulskirche (St. Paul's Church) in Frankfurt, where the first freely elected German national assembly convened. Legal tender throughout the Eurozone. The coin offered is UNC, never handled.

Sa rareté

⁣⁢30,000,000 coins in standard quality, distributed among the five German mints. You can still find them in circulation. The G mint (Karlsruhe) struck the fewest, F (Stuttgart) the most, and even the least struck letter remains common. BU and Proof mintages are not published.⁤⁣

Pour qui

For those completing the German states series, of which Hesse is the tenth coin out of seventeen, or a German collection by year of issue: Germany issued three 2-euro commemorative coins in 2015, but only one belongs to this series. Also for enthusiasts of political history.

⁣⁢The three qualities of this issue⁤⁣

⁣⁢30,000,000 examples in standard quality: here, the condition of the piece matters more than the mintage. BU and Proof versions exist, but their mintages are not published.⁤⁣

The St. Paul's Church in Frankfurt seen from the front: the tower dominates, the main building is elliptical, and a slightly exaggerated porch seems to invite entry. Below, HESSEN. To the left, the year 2015 and the mint mark; to the right, the D for Germany and the initials HH of Heinz Hoyer. The twelve European stars surround the design. Design: Heinz Hoyer, from Berlin.

⁣⁢History⁤⁣

The Paulskirche was built in Frankfurt between 1789 and 1833, based on an oval plan. In May 1848, the first freely elected German National Assembly met there; it was dissolved in May 1849. Hence its name, the cradle of German democracy.

Bombings destroyed the church in March 1944. It was rebuilt and reopened in 1948, for the centenary of the Frankfurt Parliament. On the coin, the roof is not depicted: this detail refers to this reconstruction, without erasing the destruction.

Where other German states show a castle or a cathedral, the coin from Hesse depicts a parliamentary site. It was released on January 30, 2015: it is the tenth in the series launched in 2006, in order of the Bundesrat presidencies.

⁣⁢Our Merchant's Opinion⁤⁣

With a mintage of 30,000,000, the Hessen coin will not gain value; it is common and will remain so. It is purchased to complete the Länder series or its 2015 year of issue, not for speculation. Look for the condition: a Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) coin with sharp relief, free of scratches on the tower or the outer ring.
A trap for those who search "Paulskirche": Germany issued another 2-Euro coin in 2024, for the 175th anniversary of the Paulskirche Constitution. It is separate from the State series. Check for the legend HESSEN and the year 2015 before adding it to an album.

À éviter : Ne jamais nettoyer
À éviter : Sous capsule
À éviter : Humidité < 50 %

Le détail

Handle the coin by its edge, over a cloth. Do not clean: it will scratch the relief of the tower and dull the original luster. Use a capsule, keep in dry air, avoid contact with PVC.

⁣⁢Direct Answers⁤⁣

⁣⁢Questions about the coin⁤⁣ 4

⁣⁢What is the 2 Euro Hessen coin 2015 worth?⁤⁣

Very little. With 30,000,000 coins, the piece is common and its price follows the condition of the specimen, not its rarity. Even the least minted mint letter, the G from Karlsruhe, remains abundant. The BU and Proof versions are another matter, and their mintage is not published.

⁣⁢What is the mintage of the 2 Euro Hessen coin?⁤⁣

30,000,000 copies in common quality, struck by the five German mints (A, D, F, G, and J). The mintages for BU and Proof versions are not published.

⁣⁢Where to read the mint mark on the Hessen coin?⁤⁣

To the left of the central part, with the year 2015. A designates Berlin, D Munich, F Stuttgart, G Karlsruhe, and J Hamburg. The letter does not change the design: it only indicates where the coin was struck.

⁣⁢Who designed the Hessen coin?⁤⁣

Heinz Hoyer, an artist from Berlin, whose initials HH appear to the right of the design. The common reverse is by Luc Luycx.

⁣⁢Questions about purchasing⁤⁣ 3

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

In a numismatic sleeve, with individual protection for each coin. Nothing on the outside of the package indicates that it contains collectible coins.

⁣⁢Can I return the coin?⁤⁣

Yes. 14-day returns.

⁣⁢Is this a good gift idea?⁤⁣

Yes. Modern, inexpensive, and it fits into the France series that you can complete at your own pace.
