Obverse: The set consists of five 2010 German commemorative €2 coins, struck at all five German mints and identified by the mint marks A, D, F, G and J. The centre of the coin depicts two of the most important symbols of the city of Bremen – the historic Bremen Town Hall and the Roland statue standing in front of it. The inscription BREMEN appears below the composition. The outer ring bears the 12 stars of the European Union, with the corresponding mint mark at the top and the year 2010 at the bottom.
Reverse: The reverse features the design characteristic of all €2 coins: a geographical map of Western Europe positioned on the right side of the coin and extending across both the inner and outer sections. The inscription 2 EURO appears above the map, while the numeral 2 is set against the Atlantic Ocean. The outer ring features 12 stars positioned on both sides of the map, with vertical lines visually connecting the upper and lower stars.
About the coins: The 2010 German commemorative €2 coin is dedicated to the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen and is the fifth coin in the German Bundesländer series. Its design features Bremen Town Hall and the Roland statue, two important symbols of the citys history and civic autonomy. Construction of the Gothic town hall began in the early 15th century, while the more than five-metre-high Roland statue was erected in 1404 and symbolises the citys freedom and trading rights. Bremen Town Hall and the Roland statue were inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2004. The coin was designed by Bodo Broschat. The set contains coins from all five German mints: A – Berlin, D – Munich, F – Stuttgart, G – Karlsruhe and J – Hamburg.
