Additional information

On the occasion of the wedding of the Monegasque princely couple, a commemorative coin was issued in 2011 showing Prince Albert II in profile on the back and Princess Charlène in profile on the front. For the 10th wedding anniversary, a coin was minted with updated portraits of the couple, whereby both heads are again shown in profile, but the visible part of the upper body of the Princess is in three-quarter profile - as if she were turning her right shoulder towards the Prince.
