Slovak euro

Slovakia is a member state of the European Union since May 1, 2004 and it is a member of the Economic and Monetary Union from 1 January 2009. The adoption of the euro ended the circulation of the previous currency, the Slovak koruna, with a fixed conversion rate on July 8, 2008 as 1 euro = 30.1260 crowns.

The selection of the national side of the euro coins in Slovakia was made by asking to the population to vote for ten projects and choosing the three most voted, which were:

• the top of Mount Kriván, located in the chain of the Tatra Mountains;
• the castle of the city of Bratislava;
• the cross on three hills, which is the emblem of Slovakia.
