New national sides of euro circulation coins

(2014/C 46/08)

Euro circulation coins have legal tender status throughout the euro area. The Commission publishes all new euro coin designs (1) with a view to informing all parties required to handle coins in the course of their work as well as the public at large.

The Netherlands has updated the design of the Dutch national face of euro coins to be produced from 2014 in order to illustrate the change in the position of the Head of State. Coins from previous years featuring the old Dutch national face will remain valid.

Issuing country: The Netherlands

Date of issue: January 2014

Description of the designs: All the denominations feature the effigy of King Willem-Alexander.

On the 1-, 2-, 5-, 10-, 20- and 50-euro cent coins the effigy is separated in two parts by an area with a vertical line. At the left of the vertical line, reading from bottom to top, the Dutch mint master mark, the text ‘Willem-Alexander’ and the mint mark. At the right of the vertical line, reading from top to bottom, the text ‘Koning der Nederlanden’. At the bottom left of the effigy the year of issuance ‘2014’.

On the 1- and 2-euro coins the design shows at the right side of the effigy three vertical lines. Between the first and the second line from the right, the Dutch mint master mark, the year of issuance and the mint mark. Between the second and the third line from the right the text ‘Willem-Alexander’ and after the third line from the right the text ‘Koning der Nederlanden’.

The coin's outer ring depicts the 12 stars of the European flag.

The edge-lettering of the 2-euro coin is: ‘GOD * ZIJ * MET * ONS *’ (‘God be with us’).

| (4) | Even if a convention concluded between a single Member State and one or more third countries does not come within the concept of ‘legislation’ within the meaning of Article 1(l) of Regulation (EC) No 883/2004, this cannot affect the obligation of every Member State to comply with the principle of equal treatment laid down in Article 45 of the Treaty (4). |

| (5) | For this reason, it should be made clear that bilateral conventions on social security between a Member State and a third country must be interpreted to the effect that the bilateral conventions must be applied in such a way as to not deprive a person and the members of his/her family (Article 1(i) of Regulation (EC) No 883/2004) from the rights attached to the exercise of the freedom of movement within the European Union as laid down in the Treaty. |

| (8) | The intention of Articles 17 and 24 to 26 of Regulation (EC) No 883/2004 is to ensure that the grant of sickness benefits in kind should not be conditional on the residence of the insured person in the competent Member State in order not to deter migrant workers from exercising their right to free movement (5). |

| (9) | This also applies to family members as defined in Article 1(i) of Regulation (EC) No 883/2004 who shall receive in the Member State of residence sickness benefits in kind provided, on behalf of the competent institution, by the institution of the place of residence on the basis of Articles 17 or 24 to 26 of Regulation (EC) No 883/2004. |

| (10) | The principle of equal treatment should also apply in principle in cases where the competent Member State has concluded a bilateral convention with a third country in which provisions on sickness benefits in kind which become medically necessary in a third country are included, and provided that the third country is prepared to cooperate in individual cases, |

HEREBY RECOMMENDS:

| 1. | A Member State which has concluded a bilateral convention on social security with a third country in which provisions on sickness benefits in kind are included shall apply these provisions to persons to whom the legislation of this Member State applies, as well as to members of their family, who reside in another Member State and who are entitled to receive benefits in kind on the basis of Articles 17 or 24 to 26 of Regulation (EC) No 883/2004, in the situation where sickness benefits in kind become medically necessary during a period of stay in that third country. |
