Estimated value

$3 - $6 in circulated condition, $10 - $25 for Uncirculated (BU) or Proof versions depending on packaging.

What drives this coin's value

Condition is the primary factor, but the specific packaging (cards vs. circulation bags) also dictates price for collectors.

Grade assessment

About Uncirculated / Mint State (appears to have original luster with minor surface handling marks).

Mintage & rarity

Approximately 510,000 to over 24 million depending on the specific variant and packaging (BU/Proof/Circulation).

Authenticity & counterfeit red flags

Verify weight (8.5g) and magnetic properties (the center is slightly magnetic). Check for the crispness of the edge lettering.

Notable varieties & errors

Colorized versions or coins sold in specific coincard sets are highly sought after by collectors.

Similar coins

Other French 2 Euro commemoratives from 2021-2023 featuring Olympic themes (Marianne, Genie, Sower). Check the year and central design to distinguish them.

Care & preservation

Handle by the edges to avoid fingerprints on the luster. Store in a PVC-free flip or capsule to prevent oxidation and scratches.
