The ECU — European Currency Unit — was not legal tender anywhere. It existed as a accounting unit within the European Monetary System from 1979, used for settling balances between central banks and denominating certain bonds, but never circulated in pockets or tills. The Monnaie de Paris exploited the unit's name and pan-European symbolism to produce collector pieces throughout the 1980s, this 1985 issue appearing at a moment when ten member states composed the EEC — just before Spain and Portugal's accession on 1 January 1986 expanded the community to twelve.
