Comment

The national landscapes that symbolise the Finnish character have a generally recognised significance in Finland’s national culture, history and conception of nature. Mint of Finland is releasing a series of base-metal commemorative coins on Finland’s national landscapes.

In an online poll held in the summer of 2017 and organised by Mint of Finland, the Finnish people voted for nine of their most popular national landscapes to be featured on the commemorative coins. The obverse of the eighth coin to be released in the series depicts Porvoonjoki River Valley and Old Porvoo, while the reverse is minted with an image of the map of Finland.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique bimetallic design, with a nickel brass clad nickel center in an aluminum bronze ring. This distinctive design element adds to the coin's visual appeal and sets it apart from other coins.
