The value side shows an eagle and the lettering “Federal Republic of Germany”, the value digit and designation, the year 2020 and the twelve European stars. Depending on the minting location, the mint mark is: “A” (Berlin), “D” (Munich), “F” (Stuttgart), “G” (Karlsruhe) or “J” (Hamburg).
The edge of the coin is smooth and doesn’t have any structure.
