The arms feature the characteristic crescent and eight-pointed star motif at upper right, with a flame device at center and an oak and wheat wreath at lower left. The denomination '1 MANAT' appears in the lower field. The circular legend around the periphery reads 'AZƏRBAYCAN RESPUBLİKASI', with small star devices flanking the design. |

Issued to mark Azerbaijan's hosting of the 2015 European Games in Baku — the first edition of that multi-sport competition ever held — this coin appeared as part of a broader commemorative program tied to an event the Aliyev government invested heavily in promoting as a showcase of national prestige. Azerbaijan spent an estimated $8 billion on the Games, a figure that drew significant international scrutiny given the country's human rights record at the time.
