Euro Coin Issues/News in 2022
Greetings All,
Now, approaching March, I'll start adding the new 2022 Commemorative Coins and follow the same format as I have for the last two years. So, the coins will be added as they appear, as well as any announcements from the various countries about intended issues later in the year. The Commemoratives will also, as last year be arranged alphabetically by country rather than chronologically. This will be updated weekly, so come back for the latest news.
Looking back, the number of coins minted in 2021decreased slightly compared to 2020 - 2020 32 coins and 2021 31 coins.
At the time of writing 22nd February, 25 are planed for 2022 but I suspect this number will increase over the next few months.
To wet your appetite for the 2022 Commemoratives, here is some info regarding what lies ahead.
The first joint issue since 2015 will be issued.
