Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the European Union flag on one side and the Finnish coat of arms on the other. This design was created to commemorate Finland's presidency of the Council of the European Union in 2015. The coin's bimetallic composition, with a nickel brass clad nickel center in a copper-nickel ring, also makes it stand out from other coins in circulation.
