Overview

Historical significance

This coin is part of the first series of Euro coins issued by Italy after the adoption of the Euro as its official currency. The design chosen for the 50 cent coin reflects Italy's rich artistic heritage, featuring a prominent work of modern Italian sculpture, symbolizing innovation and progress within the unified European context.

Estimated value

Circulated coins typically hold their face value (0.50 EUR). Uncirculated or proof versions, especially from specific mint years, might fetch a slightly higher premium for collectors (e.g., 1-5 EUR or more depending on condition and rarity).

Care & preservation

To preserve the coin's condition, handle it by the edges to avoid transferring oils from your skin. Store it in a cool, dry place, ideally in an inert coin holder, slab, or album. Avoid cleaning the coin, as improper cleaning can damage its surface and significantly reduce its numismatic value.
