Description

In 2000, the United Nations General Assembly proclaimed May 22 as the International Day for Biological Diversity, to commemorate the adoption of the Convention on Biological Diversity, signed in Nairobi, Kenya, in 1992.
The aim is to safeguard the extraordinary wealth represented by all existing species on Earth and to promote daily actions to conserve, restore, and equitably share nature and the countless benefits it provides to humanity.

The reverse of the 5 euro coin features a symbolic composition representing all living beings: a wing, a fin, a paw, a leaf, and a hand, joined in a circle around the planet Earth. The life of each being is interconnected with the existence of all other species, making it essential to preserve balance and biodiversity.

The obverse of the coin depicts the Three Towers of San Marino resting on the curves of the Nautilus' golden spiral, an homage to the perfection found in all living forms.
