2 Euros Barn Swallow

Beschrijving voorzijde	The inner core features three barn swallows (Hirundo rustica): one depicted in full flight with wings outstretched, and two perched on an electricity line rendered in the lower portion of the field. The Latin binomial HIRUNDO RUSTICA is inscribed as a legend along the upper arc of the inner core, while the country name EESTI and the date 2023 appear in a semi-circular legend along the lower right. The outer ring bears the twelve stars of the European Union flag arranged in a full circle, rendered in high relief against a smooth ground.

Aanvullende informatie	Estonia's national bird has appeared on the country's coinage since the first kroon series of 1992, making this 2023 euro issue part of a long-running iconographic continuity that survived both the Soviet period and the currency transition of 2011. Eesti Pank has periodically issued commemorative two-euro pieces tied to national symbols, and this coin falls within that program rather than representing any specific anniversary or political occasion.
