The standard 2 euro circulation coin from Monaco features a portrait of Prince Albert II, who has served as the sovereign of the Principality since 2005. His profile is rendered in a formal style, facing towards the right, reflecting the enduring role of the Grimaldi dynasty in the governance and identity of the nation. The design includes the name of the issuing state, 'MONACO', inscribed in a clear, elegant typeface along the upper periphery, while the lower section displays the year of issue. This imagery serves as a consistent symbol of the constitutional monarchy that defines the political structure of the state. The coin was issued in 2020 with a mintage of 1,000,000 pieces.
