A geographical map of Western Europe spans the outer ring and inner core on the right side of the coin. The inscription 2 EURO is superimposed over the map of Europe, with the numeral “2” located in an open field representing the eastern Atlantic Ocean. Twelve stars are located on the right side of the outer ring, with six stars atop the map of Europe and six stars below it; six vertical stripes cut across the inner core of the coin, visually connecting the upper and lower star segments.

Interesting fact

The 2 Euro commemorative coin from Latvia, issued in 2022 as part of the Erasmus Programme, features a unique design that incorporates a nickel brass clad nickel center in a copper-nickel ring. This bi-metallic construction gives the coin a distinctive look and feel, and it's a notable departure from the standard design used for most circulating coins.
