Finish euro coins description
Republic of Finland (Fin. Suomen
tasavalta, Swedish Republiken Finland)
Capital: Helsinki
Area: 338424 km2
Population: 5.44 million (2013)
Official languages: Finnish, Swedish
Currency before the introduction of the
euro: Finnish mark = 100 pence
Euro introduction date: 1 January 1999, 1 January 2002 in cash
Head of State: President
Form of government: parliamentary
republic
Initially, the Republic of Finland
introduced three themes for its coins. The motifs depicted on them
are borrowed from previously issued national coins. They were
grouped as follows.
On coins of denominations from 1 to 50
euro cents by the artist and sculptor Heikki Haivaoja (Heikki Haivaoja, born
1929), there is an image of the Finnish heraldic lion, which has been decorating
the coat of arms of the state since the 16th century. The heraldic
lion in Finland has been used in the design of Finnish coins since 1917, when
the state gained independence. The Finnish lion by Heikki Häiväoja
has been depicted on Finnish coins since 1964.
The main motif of the 1 euro coin was the
design of the coin with the image of two whooper swans flying over the Finnish
landscape, developed back in 1997 by the artist Pertti Makinen (born 1952) for
the 80th anniversary of Finland's independence. This bird is the
national symbol of Finland. It is the trademark with the image of a
swan that is a quality mark in this state.
Cloudberry flowers and berries are the
theme of the 2 euro coin, proposed by Raimo Heino (1932-1995) for the coin
design competition held in 1988.
Cloudberry is considered the queen of
berries. Due to the fact that it grows mainly in the northern
regions of the country in dense swampy forests, this berry is very expensive.
In addition, on the obverse of the
Finnish coins of the 1999 sample, along with the main motif, there is the sign
of the general director of the Mint of Finland - Raimo Makkonen - letter M. It
has been customary to affix the sign of the head of the mint on Finnish coins
since tsarist times.
For 14 years of minting, Finnish euro
coins have undergone, albeit minor, but changes.
In order to fulfill the recommendation of
the European Commission "On the general rules for the design of national sides
of European coins for circulation" dated June 3, 2005, which prescribes the
unification of the designs of euro coins of different states of the eurozone
according to certain rules, it was decided to put down the designation of the
state - FI and replace the letter - Raimo Makkonen's initial with the sign of
the national mint - a stylized cornucopia (since 2011, a new sign of the mint
has been used
yard - Finnish lion). So in
2007, the second type of Finnish coins came out, which has a similar design as
the first one, but with different identification marks.
In 2008, the Finnish euro coins underwent
a minor modification: now the mint mark is placed not among the stars of the
European Union, but in the central part of the coin.
Unlike other countries in the euro zone,
in Finland the 1 and 2 euro cent coins are minted primarily for collectors. The
main reason for this is the tradition of not using small coins, as well as the
rounding of prices to 5 euro cents. And, despite the fact that
coins of this denomination are legal tender, in practice they are not even
always accepted for payment.
