Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Helene Schjerfbeck 2 Euro coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the artist's signature style. The coin's obverse side features a portrait of Helene Schjerfbeck, a renowned Finnish painter, in a stylized and abstract manner, while the reverse side features a reproduction of her famous painting "The Convalescent" (1915). This coin is a beautiful tribute to Schjerfbeck's artistic legacy and a rare example of a coin that combines both a portrait and a piece of artwork on its design.
