This issue predates Germany's physical adoption of the euro by several years, struck while the Maastricht Treaty's convergence criteria were still being contested and the Deutsche Mark remained legal tender. It was part of a broader commemorative program explicitly designed to build public acceptance for monetary union — a political project as much as a numismatic one, at a moment when German public opinion polls showed majority opposition to abandoning the Mark.
