Den samlede pålydende værdi af euromønter udstedt af Vatikanstaten hvert år udgør en del af det samlede loft over euromønter udstedt af Den Italienske Republik , som forelægges for ECB til forudgående godkendelse i henhold til EF-traktatens artikel 106 , stk . 2 .
An increase in the annual and exceptional face values of euro coins which the Vatican City State is authorised to issue is therefore desirable . The total face value of euro coins issued by the Vatican City State each year forms part of the annual ceiling of euro coins issued by the Italian Republic which is submitted to the ECB for prior approval under Article 106 ( 2 ) of the EC Treaty .
