The German Federal Republic’s Ministry of Finance and German Mint has brought out the first coin titled "Health Care" in a new Coin Series beginning in 2022 with the theme “In the Service of Society.”The Reverse of the 10 Euro Tri-material Polymer Ring Coin has complex areas of responsibility in modern health care. In the center of the design, two hands are clasped: One hand of a person to be cared for, the other of the carer. They stand for "protection, trust, and warmth". Below the design is the inscription "PFLEGE" (“CARE”).
The Obverse of the coin depicts a stylized eagle centered with the year of issue "2022" placed just under and the denomination of "10 EURO" shown below the eagle. The issuer "Federal Republic of Germany" is placed along the top edge. On the outside of the polymer ring are 12 stars representing the European Union arranged as six stars on each side in a semi-circle.
