| Obverse description | Within the central field, a pair of stylized intertwining serpents or dragon-like creatures rendered in the Art Nouveau manner forms a symmetrical ornamental motif, evoking the architectural decorative heritage of Riga. The legend 'RĪGA 2005' arcs along the upper border, while 'LATVIJAS REPUBLIKA' curves along the lower border. The denomination '1 LATS' is inscribed horizontally across the center of the field. The overall design reflects the sinuous, organic line work characteristic of the Jugendstil aesthetic prevalent in Riga's early twentieth-century architecture. |
