The 2022 Lithuania 2 euro commemorative coin celebrates the cultural significance of basketball, a sport often described as the second religion of the nation. The national side features a stylised map of Lithuania, intricately shaped to resemble a basketball court, highlighting the country's deep-rooted passion for the game. This design reflects the profound impact basketball has had on Lithuanian identity and national pride since its introduction in the 1920s. By integrating the geography of the state with the lines of a court, the coin pays tribute to the sport that has consistently united the populace and brought international recognition to the Baltic nation. This commemorative issue was produced in 2022 with a mintage of 500,000 coins.
