Reverse description The standard euro area reverse design by Luc Luycx depicts a geographic map of Western Europe extending across both the inner disc and outer ring on the right side of the coin. The denomination 2 EURO is inscribed across the map, with the large numeral '2' positioned in the open field representing the eastern Atlantic Ocean. A ring of twelve stars frames the outer edge, divided symmetrically above and below the map, while six vertical lines traverse the inner disc, visually linking the two star groups. The designer's initials LL appear in the field.

Additional information

Pūzuris is a traditional Latvian ornament — a hanging mobile of geometric straw construction made during the winter solstice festival of Ziemassvētki — and its selection for a circulating commemorative reflects Latvia's sustained effort since EU accession to anchor national identity in pre-Christian folk tradition rather than Soviet-era symbols. The Latvian mint has leaned heavily on ethnographic motifs across its euro commemorative program, a deliberate curatorial stance.
