| Reverse description | The bimetallic centre depicts the mythological scene of the Abduction of Europa, showing the figure of Europa seated astride a bull (Zeus in disguise), rendered in bold relief within a series of concentric circular grooves that echo the standard 2 Euro denomination numeral displayed to the left. The composition is vigorous and three-dimensional, with Europa grasping the bull's horn. The outer copper-nickel ring carries a trilingual legend reading EUROPA in Latin, EUROPE in French/English, and EYPΩΠH in Greek script, separated by raised dots, with the word SPECIMEN inscribed along the lower arc. |
