Euro Coin Collection has been updated to version 4.6 for iPhone, 4.2 for iPad, 4.0 for Mac and 3.4 for Android.

The latest 6 2-Euro commemorative coins issued in 2023 by the Euro-area countries have been added.

Having been accustomed to a fixed size album for a long time, this new feature has a certain wow effect! 😀

Also, the descriptions of the designs of the 2021, 2020 and 2019 commemorative coins have been improved, and a usability issue related to updating the parameters of coins already present in the collection has been fixed.

New and eagerly awaited update for the app Euro Coin Collection.

All 19 coins of the common issue dedicated to the Erasmus programme (EuRopean Community Action Scheme for the Mobility of University Students), officially issued on 1 July 2022, have been added.

The design is a mix of two major elements of the programme: the original intellectual inspiration and the allegory of its influence over Europe.
The first one is symbolised by one of the most known depiction of Erasmus of Rotterdam, the second one by a beam of links going across the coin from a point to another, representing the numerous intellectual and human exchanges between the European students.

Also, 4 2 Euro commemorative coins issued for 2022 have been added.
