2 Euros Olympic Games, Paris 2024 - France 2022

Issued two years before the Paris Games opened, this coin was part of France's extended commemorative program that began in 2021 — the year the Tokyo Olympics were held, and the year Paris formally took the Olympic flag at the closing ceremony. Releasing commemoratives across multiple years was a deliberate strategy by the Monnaie de Paris to sustain collector interest across the full lead-up period rather than concentrating production in a single year.
