| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a panoramic view of the historic town of Kuldīga, depicting its twin-towered church and characteristic townscape set upon a rocky rise, with a multi-arched stone bridge extending to the right. Below the cityscape, the Venta River waterfall is rendered in flowing relief, its reflection shown in the polished lower field. In the mirror-image lower portion, diamond-shaped geometric motifs representing the waterfall's reflection are rendered in an artistic stylized manner. The legend KULDĪGA arches across the upper field, while HANZAS PILSĒTA appears along the lower rim, identifying the city as a Hanseatic town. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued as part of Latvia's long-running series celebrating the country's historic towns, the 2002 Kuldiga lats honors one of the best-preserved medieval towns in the Baltic region — a place whose old-town core was largely untouched by the Soviet-era construction that reshaped most Latvian cities. Kuldiga is also home to the Venta Rapid, the widest waterfall in Europe by span, a detail the town has traded on for centuries.
The series itself was a deliberate cultural project tied to Latvia's post-independence identity, running through the late 1990s and into the 2000s before the lats was retired upon eurozone entry in 2014.
