| Obverse description | The bimetallic inner disc features stylised male and female profiles facing each other, separated by a vertical dividing line, commemorating the centenary of Finland's universal and equal suffrage of 1906. The date '1.10.1906' is inscribed to the left of the figures, while the country abbreviation and year of issue '20 FI 06' appear to the right, with the mint mark 'M' flanking each portrait. The design, executed by Pertti Mäkinen, conveys equality through the symmetrical juxtaposition of the two faces in a clean, modernist style. The outer ring bears the twelve stars of the European Union in relief around the full circumference. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays the common European Union reverse design by Luc Luycx, featuring a relief map of the European continent extending beyond the coin's inner disc and into the outer ring, depicted without national borders to symbolise unity. The face value '2 EURO' is inscribed to the left of the map, and the designer's initials 'LL' appear in the field to the lower right. The twelve stars of the European Union encircle the outer ring. |
