The 2 Euro coin from Ireland features a design of a harp, which is a traditional symbol of Ireland and a popular instrument in Irish music. The harp is depicted on the coin in a stylized form, with the strings of the harp forming the shape of the number "2" in the coin's denomination. This unique design element not only adds a touch of Irish culture to the coin but also makes it easily recognizable and distinct from other coins in the Eurozone.
