The central part of the coin bears a latent image: the logo of the coin programme, which is a stylised elliptical composition of the symbol of the euro () and a star from the flag of the European Union, as well as a picture of one of the symbols of cross-crafting. Surrounding this are the inscriptions KRYDIRBYST IR KRYI SIMBOLIKA (Cross-crafting and its symbolism) and UNESCO.
