| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The central vignette presents two Greenland Arctic hares (Lepus arcticus groenlandicus) in fine intaglio-style engraving against a light blue guilloche underprint carrying a large watermark-style inscription GREENLAND. A gold-toned foil patch at upper left bears the Greenlandic coat of arms with a polar bear motif, while the denomination numeral 2 and legend TWO KRONER appear in bold letterpress at lower left. The Latin binomial Lepus arcticus groenlandicus is inscribed vertically along the right margin. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The central composition presents a large humpback whale tail fin breaching above the waterline in dark intaglio engraving, set against a panoramic vignette of a rugged coastal glacier or sea-ice formation beneath a warm salmon-tinted sky. A decorative Inuit-motif panel in deep burgundy runs along the left border, incorporating geometric and face-mask designs, with a stylised floral or sea-anemone underprint at lower centre. At right, a disclaimer text block is followed by a facsimile Governor signature and a grid of eight silhouetted Greenlandic wildlife pictograms. |

| Anmerkungen |
Greenland's 2025 banknote series marks the territory's first domestically themed currency issue in decades — Greenland previously used Danish krone notes without any distinct Greenlandic identity. The political backdrop is the ongoing push for greater autonomy from Denmark, and this series, designed by local artists, is a direct expression of that cultural assertion rather than a neutral economic instrument.
The Arctic hare denomination is part of a wildlife-themed set, a structuring device that sidesteps portraits of politicians or monarchs entirely.
