Latvia is composed of five historical regions of the Latvian nation: Vidzeme, Latgale, Kurzeme, Zemgale, and Sēlija. Sēlija was referenced in historical records as early as the 13th century, yet it was not until 2021, with its formal inclusion in the Law on Historical Regions of Latvia, that Sēlija was defined as a distinct cultural and historical region. The carmine-white-moss green flag of Sēlija and the coat of arms of the historical region were approved in 2023. The coat of arms, which is featured on the reverse of the coin, has been crafted by heraldic artist Edgars Sims. Much like the lion of Kurzeme and the elk of Zemgale, the coat of arms of Sēlija incorporates elements of the visual identity of the Duchy of Kurzeme and Zemgale, a symbol that has been portrayed in two distinct forms over the centuries – both with an elk and with a stag. The State Heraldry Commission has developed the basic principles for designing the Sēlija coat of arms, which, in contrast to other coats of arms, was crafted through a collaborative effort with the local communities, municipalities, and civic organisations of Sēlija. Embellishing it is a majestic animal, its crown adorned with elaborate antlers and its head held high – a silver stag set against a red background.
The Sēlija coat of arms marks the conclusion of the series of 2 euro commemorative coins, each honouring one of Latvia's five historical regions.
