The German government has decided to mint a €5 collectors’ coin entitled “Banded demoiselle”, to be issed at 9 November 2023. It is the fifth coin issued as part of the “Wonderful world of insects” series, which will see a total of nine coins with partially coloured motifs issued over the period 2022-24. The series is intended to bring into focus – especially in light of current developments (insect extinction) – a special group of animals that make up a significant part of our natural heritage.

The €5 collectors’ coin “Banded demoiselle” is made of a cupronickel alloy. It weighs 9.68 g, measures 27.25 mm in diameter and will be available both in mint condition and with a proof-like finish. The mint condition coins will be brought into circulation at their face value (€5). The collector quality coins with a proof-like finish will be higher than their face value and will be issued by the Münze Deutschland (Germany’s official sales agency for collector coins).

The coin was designed by Detlef Behr, an artist based in Cologne (picture side), and Andre Witting, a Berlin-based artist (reverse).

The reverse, which will be used for all coins in the series, features an eagle, the words “BUNDESREPUBLIK DEUTSCHLAND”, the value and denomination, the year 2023, the twelve stars of Europe and the letter “J” for the State Mint of Hamburg.

Its smooth edge is engraved with the inscription: “WUNDERWELT INSEKTEN” (WONDERFUL WORLD OF INSECTS)

The wheel of the zodiac signs is engraved on the coin's gold-colored crown. One sign stands out from the background because it is larger than the others and has a sandblasted background, different from the smoother one of the others. It is the symbol of Sagittarius. Part of the wheel is hidden by flames, a reminder of this sign's element, fire. A centaur armed with a bow and arrow, ready to be shot, rears up in the center of the composition. In the background, the starry sky features the constellation Sagittarius.

Obverse:
The obverse depicts, to the left, an eastern imperial eagle perched on a branch and, to the right, an eagle in flight with wings outstretched. The Slovak coat of arms appears in the upper right of the design, directly below the year of issuance ‘2025’. Inscribed along the upper edge is the name of the issuing country ‘SLOVENSKO’. The coin’s denomination and currency, ‘5 EURO’, are positioned in the lower right, below the flying eagle. To the left of the perched eagle is the mint mark of the Kremnica Mint (Mincovňa Kremnica), consisting of the letters ‘MK’ between two dies.

Reverse:
The reverse features the head of an eastern imperial eagle, occupying most of the design field. In the lower part, overlying the eagle’s neck, is a nest containing two eaglets and an egg. The scientific and Slovak names of the eastern imperial eagle, ‘AQUILA HELIACA’ and ‘OROL KRÁĽOVSKÝ’, are inscribed along the edge around the eagle’s head. The stylised initials ‘TL’ of the designer, Tomáš Lamač, appear next to the lower right edge.

The majestic king of the plains—the eastern imperial eagle—is the rarest species of eagle found in Slovakia. Although the name ‘imperial’ suggests exceptional size, it is not the largest eagle in the country. It is rather the eagle’s origin that is unique, as it started spreading here from the southern European steppe in the mid-20th century. It is distinguished from other eagles mainly by two prominent white spots on its wings. The eagles usually build their nests in tall trees, and the female lays one to three eggs. The eaglets hatch after 43 to 45 days and emerge from the nest 70 to 75 days after hatching. Initially, only the male provides food for the chicks, but as they grow larger, the female also contributes. The eagle preys mainly on small rodents, young hares, pheasants, partridges, and members of the crow family. In Slovakia, where there are only around 100 nesting pairs, the eastern imperial eagle is a protected species, and the country is therefore important in terms of efforts to conserve the species in Europe.
