| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a cartographic representation of the moon as observed from the island of Harmaja, off the coast of Finland, rendered in fine relief against a smooth field. In the foreground, the bold silhouette of a crow is shown perched on a bare branch, its form set against the luminous lunar disc in a composition evoking the Finnish natural landscape. The bilingual legend 'SUOMALAINEN LUONTO DEN FINSKA NATUREN' arcs across the design, referencing Finnish nature in both Finnish and Swedish, the two official languages of Finland. The designer's initial 'A' appears in the field. The overall artistic treatment is graphic and contemporary, emphasizing the relationship between Finnish wildlife and the northern night sky. |
