On 14 July this year, the Croatian National Bank will release into circulation a commemorative €2 coin “1100th Anniversary of the Croatian Kingdom and the Coronation of King Tomislav“. Coin exchanges for the public will begin on 8 September 2025.

The design on the commemorative coin features King Tomislav, who was crowned King of Croatia in the year 925. That year marks the beginning of a highly significant 1100-year anniversary of the Croatian Kingdom, carrying rich historical, cultural, and political meaning for the Republic of Croatia. A depiction of the King Tomislav monument was one of the central motifs on the reverse of the former 1000 kuna banknote.

A total of 400,000 coins will be issued, of which 382,400 will be available to the public for exchange. The national side of the coin was designed by Nikola Vudrag, Bachelor of Arts in Sculpture, and the coin was minted by the Croatian Mint.

In addition to its collector value, the commemorative euro coin also has the status of a circulation coin, meaning no fee will be charged for its exchange. Accordingly, this commemorative €2 coin will be available at face value — €2.

Citizens interested in obtaining the coin can apply between 14 and 31 July 2025 (or until the allotted quantity is exhausted) via the CNB’s Commemorative Coin Reservation System: https://prigodne-eurokovanice.hnb.hr/.
Each person may register interest to exchange up to five (5) coins, or until the available amount is depleted.

As of 8 September 2025, based on a confirmed reservation, coins may be collected:

• in person at the CNB cash desk (Croatian National Bank, Jurišićeva 17, Zagreb) from Monday to Friday, between 8:30 and 15:30, free of charge;
• By post, delivered to an address within the Republic of Croatia, with postage costs paid in advance based on a pro forma invoice issued by the CNB;
