| Reverse description | The reverse, common to all eurozone 2 euro coins issued from 2007 onward, displays a relief map of the European continent extending beyond the borders of the inner disc and into the outer ring, rendered without internal national boundaries. The face value '2 EURO' appears to the left of the map in two lines, with the designer's initials 'LL' (Luc Luycx) positioned below. The outer ring carries the twelve stars of the European Union evenly spaced around the circumference. |

| Additional information |
Issued to mark the tenth anniversary of euro banknotes and coins entering circulation on January 1, 2002, this was a coordinated commemorative struck by all eurozone member states simultaneously in 2012 — each country producing its own national design while sharing the common reverse. Spain's participation came during one of the most acute phases of its sovereign debt crisis, with the country's borrowing costs briefly exceeding seven percent that same year.
