German euro coins have three separate designs for the three series of coins. The 1-cent, 2-cent and 5-cent coins were designed by Rolf Lederbogen, the design for the 10-cent, 20-cent and 50-cent coins is by Reinhard Heinsdorff and the 1 and 2 euro coins were done by Heinz Hoyer and Sneschana Russewa-Hoyer. Featured in all designs are the 12 stars of the EU and the year of imprint.

In addition to the year, the German coins also feature a small letter as a mint mark indicating the particular mint that minted the coin.

  • A: Berlin
  • D: Munich
  • F: Stuttgart
  • G: Karlsruhe
  • J: Hamburg

The letters were assigned to the mints as they opened. The mints in Hannover/Vienna (B), Frankfurt am Main (C), Dresden/Muldenhütte (E), and Darmstadt (H) have since been closed; the last, Muldenhütte, in 1953.

German Bundesländer series

Germany started the commemorative coin series Die 16 Bundesländer der Bundesrepublik Deutschland (The 16 States of the Federal Republic of Germany) in 2006, which will continue until 2021. The year in which the coin for a specific state is issued coincides with that state's Presidency of the Bundesrat. The coins issued are:

The other five coins will be issued in the following years; note that some designs are not yet finalised and still subject to change. Originally, the designs for the following states were different:

  • Hamburg: Landungsbrücken
  • Free Hanseatic City of Bremen: Bremen City Hall only
  • Bavaria: Munich Frauenkirche
  • Lower Saxony: Hanover New City Hall, then St. Michael's Church in Hildesheim
  • Hesse: Römer in Frankfurt am Main
  • Berlin: Reichstag

The series is similar to the United States' 50 State Quarters series, which saw fifty coins issued for its fifty constituent states, five per year between 1999 and 2008. A separate program saw six coins issued in 2009 for the District of Columbia and five territories of the United States.

Others
