Description: Hello; and thank you for your interest in this stunning and valuable coin, a 2001 France, Tree of Life, 2 Euro error coin, considered by many as among the most desirable Euro coin type exciting collector's worldwide. Upon a detailed review, this coin is in mint state and has obvious errors, making it a very desirable piece. The coin and errors have been photographed using a Dcorn 1200X Digital Microscope with 12MP Photo and 1080P Video, in order to allow your detailed examination. This coin’s design was determined by a panel chaired by the Minister for Economic Affairs and Finance, who chose three designs, each for specific denomination. The design chosen for the first series of €1 and €2 coins was the work of the artist Joaquin Jimenez. It features a tree symbolizing life, continuity and growth, standing within a hexagon and encircled by the motto of the French Republic, "Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité" (Liberty, equality, fraternity). In 2022 France introduced a second series of €1 and €2 coins. The new design features oak and olive branches that form the tree of life and symbolize strength, solidity and peace. The tree and the motto stand within a hexagon. Edge lettering of the €2 coin: 2**, repeated six times, alternately upright and inverted.
