Each of the European Union members issues its own coins; the banknotes, however, all the same for the entire euro zone. The coins reflect identity and ethnical and cultural values of the countries, while the bills stand for the common European idea. They show a map of Europe and a European flag, along with bridges as connecting elements. This symbolizes open borders and cross-border mobility.
