Product Description

In the context of the celebration of "100 Years Finland", the country has issued a beautiful special 2 Euro coin. The theme of this special 2017 Finnish 2 Euro coin is æFinnish NatureÆ. A photography contest was organized and the winning photograph was composed by nature photographer Kari Auvinen. He composed the winning picture, a crow on a branch with a full moon in the background, on the island of Harmaja. It's actually a compilation of two photographs, one of the crow on the branch superimposed on the photo of the moon. The crow symbolizes the modern Finnish character - an extremely common and intelligent bird that responds flexibly to different situations. The image of the crow and the moon appears on the face of the coin. At the bottom of the coin is the year 2017. The letters "FI", the abbreviation of Finland, are shown on the left of the coin, while on the right is a Lion, which is the logo of the Finnish Mint. In the outer ring of the coin are the 12 stars of Europe. The quality of this coin is Proof. This coin, in the quality Proof, is of the highest quality and is packed with the utmost care in luxury packaging. This package has been specially developed to celebrate the æ100 years of FinlandÆ.
