Interesting fact
The interesting fact about this coin is that it was designed by Finnish designer, Pekka Piippo, and features a unique, modern interpretation of the classic Finnish design element, the "Karelian steeple," which is a traditional architectural feature found in Karelian churches and other buildings in Eastern Finland. The coin's design combines this traditional element with a contemporary, minimalist aesthetic, creating a striking and distinctive look that sets it apart from other coins.
