| Obverse description | Within the central circle of the bimetallic coin, the large State coat of arms of the Republic of Latvia is depicted in relief, featuring the quartered shield with a rising sun, lion, and griffin, surmounted by a sun and flanked by branches. The outer ring bears two concentric legends arranged in semicircles: LATVIJAS REPUBLIKA arching above and the date (1999, 2003, or 2009) arranged below, each pair of inscriptions separated by two raised dot stops. The design clearly distinguishes the inner core from the outer ring through both compositional framing and the contrasting bimetallic fields. |

| Reverse description | The central circle of the reverse displays a Latvian brown cow (a national symbol) in the upper portion, rendered in fine relief facing left, with the bold numeral 2 positioned immediately below in the field. The denomination legend LATI is inscribed along the lower arc of the outer ring, completing the statement of value. A continuous background motif of stylised clouds above and grass below seamlessly bridges the boundary between the central disc and the outer ring, unifying the bimetallic design. The overall composition is clean and emblematic, reflecting the agricultural heritage of Latvia. |
