Piet Mondriaan 10 Euro Coin
If you think of Piet Mondriaan, you immediately picture the characteristic line play and primary colors that made the artist so well-known and world famous. In 2022, it’s 150 years ago Piet Mondriaan was born. Therefore, the Royal Dutch Mint minted a commemorative coin to honor this revolutionary artist.
 
Design
The Piet Mondriaan 10 Euro Coin is designed by Marjolein Rothman. The designer searched for the elementary translation of Mondriaan’s unique vision. Horizontal and vertical lines are the basic principle in his work: this is therefore used as the starting point of the coin design. On the obverse of the coin, you can see a portrait of King Willem-Alexander. On the left side the text ‘King of the Netherlands’ is written from top to bottom. On the bottom you can find the text ‘Willem-Alexander’. The two lines with text cross each other: this is a referral to Mondriaan’s work. On the left side of the obverse you will spot the mintmark and the privy mark.
 
The reverse also has a horizontal and vertical movement. The two lines on the fond cross on the bottom. The text follows these lines. In one direction the year 1872 is displayed, the birth year of Mondriaan. In the other direction the year 2022 is displayed, the year of 150 years Piet Mondriaan. The horizontal line is thicker, to give more meaning to the composition and the name Piet Mondriaan which is displayed above.
