| Obverse description | The stylized German Federal Eagle (Bundesadler) is depicted in the centre of the field, rendered in a bold, modern graphic style with spread wings and talons clearly defined. The denomination '5 EURO' appears in large numerals above the eagle. The curved legend 'BUNDESREPUBLIK DEUTSCHLAND' arcs along the left and upper periphery, while the mintmark 'A' and the date '2024' appear in the lower field, flanked by a ring of twelve small stars representing the European Union. |

| Additional information |
Germany's "Bimetallic with polymer ring" collector series — which this grasshopper issue belongs to — launched in 2016 with the blue planet Earth coin and has since become one of the Bundesbank's more commercially successful modern programs, largely because the colored polymer insert cannot be replicated by standard counterfeiting methods. Each animal-themed release is struck at all five German federal mints simultaneously, with mint marks A, D, F, G, and J all appearing across the production run. The grasshopper continues a run of native insect subjects that reflects lobbying from German conservation groups to use the series for raising ecological awareness.
