Treaty of Rome

50th anniversary of the Treaty of Rome

These coins show the Treaty document signed by the six founding countries. The signing took place on the 25 March 1957. ‘Treaty of Rome 50 years', ‘EUROPE' and the name of the issuing country appear in the respective languages of the euro area or in Latin.

The Treaty of Rome established the European Economic Community and ultimately led to the introduction of the euro in 1999 and the euro banknotes and coins in 2002. The anniversary was celebrated on 25 March 2007. The euro area countries have marked the occasion by jointly issuing this commemorative coin.
