The Vydūnas coin was designed by Lithuanian artist Giedrius Paulauskis and features a unique shape, with a rounded triangle shape and a cut-out section in the center. This unique design was inspired by the symbolism of the Vydūnas, a mythical creature in Lithuanian folklore that is said to have the power to control the elements and bring good fortune. The coin's design is meant to represent the Vydūnas' ability to bring balance and harmony to the natural world.
