Reverse description The standard European Union reverse design features a geographical map of Western Europe spanning both the inner disc and outer ring on the right side of the coin. The denomination '2 EURO' is superimposed over the map, with the numeral '2' placed in the open field representing the eastern Atlantic Ocean. Twelve stars, symbolising the member states of the European Union, are arranged along the right portion of the outer ring, six above and six below the map. Six vertical relief lines traverse the inner core, visually linking the upper and lower star groupings.

Additional information

Issued as part of France's ongoing commemorative €2 program, this piece marks the 2024–2030 naval modernization plan — a significant rearmament package driven largely by France's reassessment of collective defense obligations within NATO following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. The applied color layer, fired onto the central disc post-striking, is a finishing step Monnaie de Paris has increasingly used for commemoratives since the mid-2010s and has no effect on legal tender status.
