Along with the 1 euro coin, the 2 euro coin forms the backbone of eurozone coinage. The 1 euro and 2 euro coins are similarly bimetallic, except that the inner and outer core compositions are reversed on the 1 euro coin so as to make the coins easily distinguishable from one another. The 2 euro coin is slightly smaller in size and slightly lighter than the 50 euro cent coin. In relation to the size of U.S. coinage, the 2 euro coin is slightly larger and thicker than the U.S. quarter dollar. Read the Entire Article Report this Post to the Staff
