| Obverse description | The inner disc features a stylised portrait of the humanist scholar Erasmus of Rotterdam, rendered in a contemporary graphic style, occupying the left portion of the field. Radiating from the portrait is a network of connecting arcs and nodes extending across the disc, symbolising the intellectual and human exchanges fostered by the Erasmus Programme; several of these links converge to form additional star motifs, representing European unity born from cross-border cooperation. The numeral '35', commemorating the 35th anniversary of the programme, emerges prominently from the star elements in a bold, modern typeface. The legend ERASMUS PROGRAMME and the dates 1987-2022 appear within the field, along with the Irish form ÉIRE and the initials J.J. denoting the designer. The outer ring bears the twelve stars of the European Union flag. |
