The face value '2 EURO' appears to the left of the map, with the designer's initials 'LL' inscribed below. The twelve stars of the European Union flag encircle the design on the outer ring. |

| Additional information |
Cyprus has issued commemorative 2 Euro coins only sparingly, and this piece honoring the Cyprus Institute of Neurology and Genetics marks the institution's 30th anniversary. Founded in 1990, the CING operates as the island's primary center for genetic research and neurological disease treatment — a function that carries particular weight in Cyprus, where the frequency of certain inherited disorders, including thalassaemia, has historically been among the highest recorded anywhere in the Mediterranean.
