| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device depicts the Finnish lion passant rampant, brandishing a sword in its right forepaw, rendered in a stylized heraldic manner. The lion is surrounded by a ring of twelve five-pointed stars in the field, evoking the European Union motif. The legend 'SUOMI FINLAND' arcs along the upper left periphery, while the denomination '10 EURO' appears in the lower field beneath the central device. The overall design is executed in high relief with a mirror-like proof finish. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Olavinlinna — St. Olaf's Castle — was built in 1475 by Danish-born Erik Axelsson Tott, then serving the Swedish crown, on a rocky islet in the Saimaa lake system to hold the eastern frontier against Novgorod. The border it was meant to defend shifted repeatedly over the following centuries; Finland itself passed from Sweden to Russia in 1809, and the fortress spent decades as a Russian garrison before falling into disuse. The 1996 issue marks no specific anniversary and appears to have been produced largely for the collector market, consistent with Finland's commemorative program in the years immediately before euro adoption.
