| Obverse description | The obverse presents a vignette of windows and doorways rendered in the Classical architectural style, executed in intaglio against a grey-blue underprint with fine guilloche patterning. The design is entirely symbolic, representing the European spirit of openness and cooperation, and does not reproduce any specific existing monument. The denomination numeral '5' appears at lower left, with the ECB acronym in multiple EU languages and the word EURO / ΕΥΡΩ inscribed across the face. |
