The Austrian 2 euro standard circulation coin features a portrait of Bertha von Suttner, a prominent figure in the history of Austrian pacifism and international diplomacy. As the first woman to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1905, her likeness serves as a symbol of the nation's commitment to humanitarian ideals and global conflict resolution. The design is framed by the twelve stars of the European Union, with the denomination numeral displayed prominently to the left. This portrait is a recurring motif on the national side of the Austrian 2 euro denomination, reflecting the country's dedication to honouring intellectual and social pioneers who have shaped its cultural identity. The coin was issued in 2002 with a mintage of 196,400,000 pieces.
