Future Changes To National Sides
The European Commission issued a recommendation on 19 December 2008, a common guideline for the national sides and the issuance of euro coins intended for circulation. One section of this recommendation stipulates that:
| “ | Article 2. Identification of the issuing Member State:
The national sides of all denominations of the euro coins intended for circulation should bear an indication of the issuing Member State by means of the Member State’s name or an abbreviation of it. |
” |
A new design on the Greek euro coins is expected in the near future to comply with these new guidelines, although nothing has officially been announced.
