As usual, the Bank of Slovenia has the good habit of calling a design competition to select the image that will be represented on its commemorative 2-euro coin. I have just learned that the one that will be broadcast in 2022 to honor the "150th anniversary of the birth of the architect Jože Plečnik" has already chosen the design it will present. In addition to this one, I will also show you the other two finalist designs, so that you yourself can assess whether you have really chosen the best one.

In total, there were 29 proposals received by the Bank of Slovenia for this new commemorative 2-euro coin, the chosen one being a design presented by Andrej Žerovnik, who apart from seeing his work embodied in the coin, has obtained a prize of 3,000 euros; so double cause for satisfaction.

Let's now see the designs that were in second and third position, which have obtained a cash prize of 1,500 and 1,000 euros respectively.

Design by Gregor Ivanušič, who finished second. 

 

 
Design by Danela Vidmar Podboj and Tomaž Podboj, who finished third.

 

Looking at the three designs, in my opinion, the best one has won, because the second and third I think they leave a lot to be desired. The design that the coin will present, considering that it is dedicated to an architect, seems quite correct to me, I would even say that I like it.

For now we do not know the volume or the date of issue. Based on previous years the run could be 1 million pieces.

My thanks to Paul (Euromunter) for the notice on this news.
