"The European single coinage system should inspire public confidence and include technological innovations to ensure that it is secure, reliable and effective. Public confidence in the system depends on the physical properties of coins, which should be as user-friendly as possible. After consultations with consumer associations, European Blind Union representatives and the vending machines industry, research was carried out to take into account the specific requirements of important categories of coin users. In order to ensure a smooth changeover to the euro and to facilitate acceptance of the coinage systems by users, easy distinction between coins through visual and tactile characteristics needed to be guaranteed.
The coins need to be covered with some special security features to limit the scope for fraud. The fact that they have one European and one national side is an appropriate expression of the idea of European Monetary Union between the Member States."@en1
