| Reverse description | The brass centre features the denomination numeral '2' to the left and the euro symbol 'E' below centre-right, with a background of diagonal parallel lines radiating across the field. The papal coat of arms — comprising the triple-crowned tiara surmounting crossed keys of Saint Peter, bound with a cord — is depicted in high relief to the right of centre. Twelve five-pointed stars are distributed around the copper-nickel outer ring in the standard European Union arrangement. The trilingual inscription 'probe - trial - essai' curves along the upper arc of the outer ring, identifying the piece as a pattern or trial strike. |
