Circulation coin

Cloudberries and cloudberry flowers

Official Journal of the European Union

This coin depicts cloudberries and cloudberry flowers. The year appears under the flowers and there is a letter "M" on the right-hand side of the coin just below the stem of the flowers. The design is circled by the 12 stars of the European Union.

Additional information

The cloudberry, a collective fruit, is the symbol of Lapland. The design shows (botanically correct) not flower and fruit, which are only visible one after the other, but leaves and fruit)".

Edge lettering

« SUOMI FINLAND * * * », where the * stands for a lion head.
