| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is struck in an irregular scalloped form replicating the natural contour of overlapping cabbage leaves, with three prominently rendered leaves filling the entire field. Each leaf displays deeply incised, flowing vein lines rendered in a stylised, sculptural manner. The legend LATVIJA appears in the upper field within the curve of the uppermost leaf, while the denomination 5 EURO is inscribed in the lower field, inverted relative to the country name, reflecting the coin's leaf-shaped orientation. The finely frosted relief and mirrored field treatment are characteristic of proof coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Latvia's "Garden of Wisdom" series has made a habit of dignifying overlooked agricultural subjects, and this entry — a cabbage — continues that commitment without apology. The series began in 2019 with a strawberry and has methodically worked through Latvian kitchen-garden staples ever since, each issue struck to the same collector-friendly specification and sold primarily through the Bank of Latvia's own retail channel rather than through conventional numismatic distribution.
Cabbage has been a dietary cornerstone in Baltic regions since at least the medieval period, central to the fermented preparations that sustained populations through long winters before refrigeration.
