2 euro - World AIDS Day - France - 2014 - UNC

2 euro commemorative coin, uncirculated. The red ribbon, symbolising the fight against AIDS, is featured in the coin’s central field. The ribbon was created by the Visual AIDS Artists Caucus and the US painter Frank Moore. It should be worn close to the heart to symbolise solidarity with AIDS sufferers and is in the shape of an upside-down V. The idea is for it to be worn as a V one day to signify victory over the disease. There are three ribbons in the central field. The other two ribbons are inverted and associated with two Vs to strengthen the symbolism of the much-hoped-for victory over the disease. The date 1st December, World AIDS Day, appears at the top of the central field. The coin’s outer ring bears the 12 stars of the European Union.
