Bundeslander series, Hamburg

Description (ECB)

The design shows the Elbphilharmonie concert hall, Hamburg’s newest landmark. The impressive and detailed representation of the concert building against the background of the maritime urban landscape represents the Land of Hamburg in an exceptionally convincing manner. The left half of the coin’s inner section includes Germany’s issuing country code, ‘D’, the year ‘2023’ and the mintmark of the respective mint (‘A’, ‘D’, ‘F’, ‘G’ or ‘J’). The right half features the artist’s initials, and the lower part features the inscription ‘HAMBURG’. The coin’s outer ring bears the 12 stars of the European flag.
