Monégasque euro coins are minted by the Monnaie de Paris (Paris Mint). The euro is the official currency of Monaco, although Monaco is not a member of the eurozone or the European Union. All coins are inscribed with the word "Monaco", the year of issue and the twelve stars of Europe.

The first sets of euro coins were minted in 1999 and the euro was put into circulation in the eurozone (and 4 European microstates, like Monaco) in 2002. However, the first euro coins of Monaco are marked 2001, not 1999 or 2002.

First series (2001–2005)

Second series (2006–2024) With the accession of Prince Albert II in 2005, new designs were warranted and these were issued in December 2006.

Third series (2025–present) Monaco revised the design of their €1 and €2 coins in 2025. The engraver opted for a more contemporary representation, along with symbolic elements to represent the Grimaldi family.New coins for the 20th anniversary of Prince Albert II’s reign
