| Obverse description | Left-facing effigy of Princess Grace Kelly of Monaco occupies the inner disc, rendered in elegant high relief with her hair swept up in a chignon, captured in a refined and idealized portrait style by engraver R.B. Baron. The engraver's signature R.B.BARON appears discreetly in the right field at mid-height, alongside the date 2007 inscribed along the lower-right rim. The legend MONACO is inscribed along the lower arc of the inner disc in bold capital letters. The outer ring features the twelve five-pointed stars of the European Union evenly spaced around the circumference, a standard motif of the euro coinage series. |

| Reverse description | The common reverse design for the 2 Euro denomination, designed by Luc Luycx, features a large numeral '2' to the left of the inner disc, with a stylized map of Europe extending across the right portion of the field, rendered with a stippled texture to differentiate national borders. The inscription EURO is integrated into the map design at centre-right. The engraver's initials LL appear in small characters near the lower-right of the map. The outer copper-nickel ring bears the twelve five-pointed stars of the European Union arranged at regular intervals. |
