| Obverse description | The face value '10 EURO' is displayed centrally between two flanking branches of laurel and oak. The national legend 'RÉPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE' is distributed across three hexagonal cartouches encircling the central device, referencing the hexagonal outline of France. The year of issue appears within the design field. The overall composition reflects the standard obverse type established by engraver Joaquin Jimenez for French commemorative euro issues. |

| Additional information |
France's official commemoration of the eightieth anniversary of V-E Day, May 8, 1945 — the date the Wehrmacht's unconditional surrender took effect across Europe. The Monnaie de Paris has issued anniversary pieces on this date consistently since the postwar decades, though the 2025 issue marks the last major round-number anniversary before the generation of direct witnesses is entirely gone.
Billon at .333 fineness places this squarely in the collectible-but-accessible tier — fine enough to distinguish it from base metal, not fine enough to carry significant bullion value.
