| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse depicts a stylised cornflower (Centaurea cyanus) in the foreground, rendered as though leaning toward the viewer amid a wind-swept field of cereal grain. At the centre of the flower head, an eight-pointed star motif drawn from traditional Estonian folk ornament serves as a symbol of luck and love. The botanical name CENTAUREA CYANUS appears as part of the legend alongside the country name EESTI and the date 2024, arranged in the field around the floral design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The cornflower (*Centaurea cyanus*) was designated Estonia's national flower in 1968, a choice made under Soviet occupation that carried quiet cultural weight — a small assertion of Estonian identity within a system designed to suppress it. The 2024 euro issue commemorates the flower's centenary as a national symbol in the broader sense, though the designation itself has roots in 19th-century national awakening movements tied to the song festival tradition.
Estonia joined the eurozone in 2011, and its commemorative 2 euro program has been notably restrained compared to larger member states.
