In 2016, Greece issued a €2 coin in honour of the 20th anniversary of the death of the celebrated conductor Dimitri Mitropoulos, who was internationally recognised for his work in music. The coin commemorates his contribution to the world of classical music and his Greek heritage. The proof coin is housed in a luxurious case with a certificate of authenticity, while its exceptionally low mintage of only 1,500 pieces makes it especially rare for collectors.
