| 背面描述 | The denomination numeral '2' is boldly displayed in the upper portion of the field in a large, prominent script, with the word 'Santimi' rendered in flowing cursive lettering beneath it, spanning the central field. The date of issue appears below the denomination in smaller upright numerals. A small decorative floral or scroll ornament is positioned at the very base of the design, below the date. The reverse is uncluttered and relies on the elegant calligraphic typography designed by Rihards Zariņš to convey a distinctly Latvian national character. |

| 附加信息 |
Latvia's first independent coinage followed the declaration of independence in 1918, but currency stabilization took years — the santims series wasn't struck until 1922, after the lat replaced the provisional Latvian rublis. The 2 santimi was produced at the Latvian State Mint in Rīga, one of the few interwar mints established specifically to assert monetary independence after centuries of foreign rule under Swedish, Polish, and Russian administrations.
Production ran intermittently across the decade, with no coins struck for several years within the stated range. The series ended well before Soviet occupation in 1940 rendered all Latvian coinage obsolete.
