The finance ministers of the euro-area member states decided, to mark the thirtieth anniversary of the EU flag, to issue 2-euro commemorative coins with a common design on the national side in their respective countries. Citizens and residents of the euro area chose their favourite design in a public online vote, selecting from five motifs that had been shortlisted by an expert jury following a design competition among European mints. Their choice fell on the design created by Georgios Stamatopoulos, a coin designer at the Bank of Greece.
