⁣⁢Obverse of the 2014 Netherlands 2 euro coin: double portrait of King Willem-Alexander and Princess Beatrix, Dutch flag in medallion⁤⁣

⁣⁢Why this coin⁤⁣

⁣⁢Summary in 60 seconds⁤⁣

Ce que c'est

The 2-Euro commemorative coin issued by the Netherlands in May 2014: a double portrait, King Willem-Alexander in the foreground and, behind him, his mother Beatrix, who abdicated in 2013. This is the "two-headed coin" that collectors seek: a Dutch 2-Euro collectible coin, which is legal tender throughout the Eurozone.

Sa rareté

⁣⁢5,000,000 pieces according to catalogs, whereas the Official Journal of the European Union announced one million: we are using the catalog figure. This is a common coin, which will not gain value. BU and Proof versions exist, but their mintages do not agree from one source to another: we are not listing them.⁤⁣

Pour qui

For those looking for "the 2-euro coin with two heads" and want to know which one it is. For collectors of the Dutch series and 2-euro coins from monarchies. And for those who want the uncirculated double portrait from 2014, without confusing it with the 2013 one.

⁣⁢The three qualities of this issue⁤⁣

⁣⁢Same coin, three strikes⁤⁣
⁣⁢Quality changes everything, and the value of 2-Euro coins with it: 5,000,000 pieces in standard quality, including this one, uncirculated. BU and Proof versions exist, but their mintages are not consistently published.⁤⁣

⁣⁢History⁤⁣

On January 28, 2013, Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands announced her abdication in favor of her son. Starting in February, the Royal Mint issued a first double portrait, with Beatrix in the foreground, bearing the date of the announcement, with a mintage of 20,000,000 pieces.

In 2014, King Willem-Alexander appears on the front. The same designer, Pannos Goutzemisis, reverses the roles, and this second double portrait is released in May. The Official Journal of the European Union presents it as the official farewell to the former queen.

Meanwhile, a third 2-Euro coin from 2013, "200 Years of the Kingdom of the Netherlands," features seven effigies: those of Willem-Alexander and his six predecessors. Three Dutch coins in two years: it's best to know which one you're holding.

⁣⁢Written by a merchant⁤⁣

⁣⁢Our Merchant's Opinion⁤⁣

The "two-headed coin" is this one, and the number dictates the rest: 5,000,000 coins. It is a common coin that will not increase in value. You are paying for its uncirculated condition and its design, not for a rarity it does not possess.

Common pitfall: the 2013 Dutch 2 Euro coin also shows two heads, but with Queen Beatrix in front. Minted in 20,000,000 copies, it is four times more common. Check the year, 2014, and the words "WILLEM-ALEXANDER KONING DER NEDERLANDEN" on the left. Never clean a coin: it scratches the metal.

⁣⁢Weigh it: 8.50 g ± 0.10. Measure it: 25.75 mm ± 0.05 and 2.20 mm thick. Test the magnet: the ring is not attracted, the center is weakly attracted. Check the edge: the "2" and the two stars should be incused and evenly spaced; molded counterfeits leave a visible seam on the edge.⁤⁣

  • À éviter : Ne jamais nettoyer
  • À éviter : Sous capsule
  • À éviter : Humidité < 50 %
  • À éviter : Loin du PVC
Le détail

Handle the coin by its edge, over a cloth. Never clean it: cleaning scratches the metal and removes its original luster. Store it in a capsule, away from humidity and PVC, which damages the metal over time.

7 ⁣⁢questions⁤⁣

⁣⁢Questions about the coin⁤⁣ 4

⁣⁢Coin 2 euros with two heads value: what coin are we talking about, and what is it worth?⁤⁣

From the 2 euro coin from the Netherlands dated 2014: King Willem-Alexander in front of Princess Beatrix, his mother. With a mintage of 5,000,000, it is common and will not gain value: an uncirculated example is purchased for its condition and design, not for rarity.

⁣⁢What is the mintage of the 2 Euro Netherlands 2014 double portrait coin?⁤⁣

5,000,000 coins according to catalogs, while the Official Journal of the European Union announced one million. BU and Proof mintages exist, but published figures do not align from one source to another: we do not cite them.

⁣⁢What's the difference with the Dutch 2 euro coin from 2013?⁤⁣

In 2013, Queen Beatrix is featured prominently, with the date January 28, 2013; the coin was minted in 20,000,000 copies. In 2014, it's King Willem-Alexander who is featured, with the year 2014 at the bottom: this coin is less common.

⁣⁢Is there another Dutch coin with multiple portraits?⁤⁣

Yes: the 2 Euro 2013 "200 Years of the Kingdom of the Netherlands" shows seven effigies, that of Willem-Alexander and his six predecessors. Minted in 3,500,000 pieces, it is another coin, which should not be confused with the double portrait.

⁣⁢Questions about purchasing⁤⁣ 3

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

In a numismatic sleeve, with individual protection, in a neutral package without mention of contents. The piece is not graded: its uncirculated condition is appreciated by the house.

⁣⁢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.
