| Reverse description | The gold-toned inner disc depicts the classical allegorical motif of Europa riding the bull, rendered in bold relief; the draped female figure is seated facing left atop a striding bull, with a scattering of six-pointed stars distributed across the field around them, evoking the symbolism of the European Union. The silver-toned outer ring bears a trilingual circular legend identifying the issuing body in French, German, and English: UNION EUROPÉENNE · EUROPÄISCHE UNION · EUROPEAN UNION · with the date 1995 appearing in the lower arc, separated by lozenge stops. |
