The Finnish people were asked what they think is something typically Finnish and the answer to that was not surprising û The Sauna. The whole world knows that the Finns love the Sauna. This is traditionally widely used in midsummer when nature is the most beautiful. A Sauna is also called a Finnish Bath. You first sit or lie down in a wooden room with a temperature of 70 - 95 degrees. The humidity is extremely low, 5 to 20%. After 8 to 10 minutes the heat is exchanged for a cold shower, snow or cold water. This is repeated two to three times. The Sauna is good for the blood circulation, prevents colds and has a positive effect on joints and lungs. On the face of this coloured coin a Finnish landscape is depicted with Sauna houses where smoke issues from the chimney. On the left side of the coin are the letters 'FI' which is the abbreviation for the country name Finland. At the bottom of the coin is the year 2018.
