Monegasque euro coins feature two separate designs for the first two series of coins, and also two separate designs for the €1 and €2 coins. All the coins are inscribed with the word "Monaco" and the twelve stars of Europe.

For images of the common side and a detailed description of the coins, see Euro coins.

The design of the coins is expected to change with the accession of Prince Albert.
