| Obverse description | The inner core bears a right-facing portrait bust of Grand Duke Henri, positioned adjacent to the numeral '25', commemorating his 25 years of membership in the International Olympic Committee. Surrounding the effigy, pictograms representing various Olympic sporting disciplines are distributed across the field, while three interlocking circles — evoking the Olympic rings — appear in the lower portion of the core. The legend 'LËTZEBUERG' and 'GROUSSHERZOG HENRI' are inscribed along the left, with the inscription 'MEMBER VU INTERNATIONALEN OLYMPESCHE KOMMITEE' running along the lower right. The outer ring carries the twelve stars of the European Union flag. |

| Reverse description | The standard reverse design for the 2 Euro denomination, designed by Luc Luycx, features a geographical relief map of Western Europe spanning both the inner core and the right portion of the outer ring. The bold numeral '2' is positioned in the open field representing the eastern Atlantic Ocean, with the inscription 'EURO' to its right superimposed over the map. Six vertical lines traverse the inner core, visually linking the upper and lower segments. Twelve stars of the European Union are arranged on the outer ring, six above and six below the map, with the mint mark 'LL' (Luc Luycx's initials) incorporated into the design. |
