To the left of the building, the anniversary dates 1977-2007 are inscribed vertically. Above the central motif, the legend COUR DES COMPTES EUROPÉENNE is inscribed in two lines across the upper field. The denomination 25 Euro appears in the lower field beneath the building. Surrounding the entire central design is a broad border bearing twelve five-pointed stars arranged in a circle, representing the member states of the European Union, in the style of the EU flag. |

| Additional information |
Issued to mark the 50th anniversary of the Treaty of Rome, this coin belongs to a coordinated series released across multiple eurozone mints in 2007 commemorating European institutions. The European Court of Auditors, established in 1977 and based in Luxembourg, was a relatively late addition to the EU institutional framework — it gained full status as one of the five main institutions only with the Maastricht Treaty in 1992.
Henri I signed off on this issue as Grand Duke of Luxembourg, the Court's host nation.
