| Reverse description | The reverse displays the standard common design for all 2 Euro coins of the Eurozone, designed by Luc Luycx. The large numeral '2' dominates the left portion of the nickel-brass center, rendered in a bold, stylised typeface against a plain field. To the right, a relief map of the European continent is shown without national borders, overlaid with the inscription 'EURO' across its lower portion. The engraver's initials 'LL' appear beneath the map. The outer copper-nickel ring bears twelve five-pointed stars arranged in a continuous circle, symbolising the unity of Europe. |
