The Italian €2 coin from 2016 issued in proof quality is dedicated to the 2,200th anniversary of the death of the Roman playwright Titus Maccius Plautus, one of the most important authors of ancient comedy. Plautus significantly influenced the development of European theatre, and his works served as models for many Renaissance and modern playwrights. The coin in proof quality features a mirror-like surface and fine details that represent the theme with dignity. It is supplied in official packaging and is an ideal addition to a numismatic collection focused on cultural heritage and Roman history.
