| Description : The commemorative coin commemorating the 20th anniversary
of Monaco's accession to the United Nations shows a dove with an olive branch in its beak, hovering over the populated
continents, depicted according to the United Nations flag. The design of the coin, from the Atelier de Gravures of
the Monnaie de Paris, shows on the left the cornucopia as a sign of the French mint Monnaie de Paris in Plessac, and
on the right a pentagon as the mint master's mark Yves Sampos. At the top there is a semi‐circle with the
indication of the issuing country "MONACO" and at the bottom in the semi‐circle the words "1993 ♦ ADMISSION
À L'ONU ♦ 2013" (admission to the UN). The coin has a much larger circulation than all previous
commemorative coins of the Principality. |
