Cypriot 5 Euro Cent

Brief Description

The coin features a copper-red appearance. On the reverse shown in the image, it depicts two mouflons (wild sheep), symbolizing the island's nature. Above the mountain sheep is the year 2019 and the name of the country in Greek (KYΠPOΣ) and Turkish (KIBRIS). The design is surrounded by the 12 stars of the European flag.

Historical Significance

Cyprus joined the Eurozone on January 1, 2008. The mouflon is a national symbol of Cyprus and represents the country's unique wildlife and natural heritage. Including both Greek and Turkish names reflects the bilingual nature of the Republic of Cyprus.
