On the Obverse, the representations of the two Magistrates Falcone and Borsellino are engraved, with the inscription FALCONE – BORSELLINO above. Below their names is the date of their death 1992 and the year of issuance of the €2 coin 2022, separated by the monogram of the Italian Republic RI. To the right is the symbol of the Rome mint R, and to the left are the initials of the designer Valerio de Seta VdS. The outer edge is engraved with the 12 stars symbolizing the Euro.

The historical image was taken from the famous photograph by Tony Gentile, who captured, at just 28 years old, the spontaneous gesture of friendship and complicity between the two Magistrates, who would die together just a few months later at the hands of the Mafia. This shot became an icon of the fight against the Mafia.
