The euro (EUR or €) is the common currency for 12 member states of the European Union and 3 European micro-states, including the Holy See (Vatican City). The euro coins have two different sides; one common, European side showing the value of the coin and one national side featuring a design chosen by the Eurozone member state where the coin was minted. Each member state has one or more designs unique to that country.
For images of the common side and a detailed description of the coins, see Euro coins.
Vatican euro coins feature the effigy of Pope John Paul II. All the coins are inscribed with the words "Città del Vaticano" and the twelve stars of the EU.
