2 Lati coin Latvia

2 Lati (Issued 1926)

The 2 lati was a large silver coin of the first Latvian Republic, struck in the mid-1920s soon after the lats currency was established. Made of a .835 fine silver alloy, it is a heavy, handsome piece with a bright white lustre and a milled edge, the kind of substantial coin that anchored everyday commerce between the wars.

On the obverse, the full national coat of arms of Latvia is displayed in detail: the central shield with its rising sun, lion and griffin, supported by a rampant lion and a griffin and framed below by crossed oak branches. The legend “LATVIJAS” arcs across the top with three stars above the shield, and “REPUBLIKA” runs along the base.

On the reverse, the value is spelled out as a large “2” over the word “LATI”, with the date “1926” beneath, the whole enclosed within a wreath of slender leaves tied at the bottom with a ribbon bow. The clean, uncluttered composition places the denomination clearly at the heart of the coin.
