| Obverse lettering | #Latvija #ripsakta #3_4gs 5 euro #2016 |
| Reverse description | The reverse bears six lines of raised Latin-script lettering centered within the polished gold field, presented in a contemporary hashtag format referencing social media culture. The inscriptions read, from top to bottom: #Latvija, #ripsakta, #3_4gs, 5 euro, and #2016, each element serving to identify the issuing nation, the depicted artifact type, its approximate dating to the 3rd–4th centuries, the face value, and the year of issue. The typography is bold and modern in contrast to the archaeological subject matter of the obverse, a deliberate stylistic choice intended to connect Latvia's ancient cultural heritage with a contemporary audience. The field is mirror-bright, giving the lettering strong visual relief. |
