| Obverse description | The obverse features a large, stylized five-petaled flower rendered in vivid purple color applied enamel, centrally positioned and dominating the field. The petals display subtle gradations of violet and mauve, conveying a naturalistic yet artistic treatment. The denomination numeral '5' appears at the top of the field, while the letters 'E', 'U', 'R', and 'O' are individually spaced around the periphery of the flower, together spelling 'EURO'. The polished silver field provides a strong contrast to the colored floral motif, enhancing the overall decorative effect. |

| Additional information |
Latvia's "Luck" coin was part of the Bank of Latvia's long-running thematic collector series, which has leaned heavily on Latvian folk tradition and symbolism since the country re-established its independent monetary system following the collapse of the Soviet Union. The series has earned genuine collector attention across the Baltic states.
KM#214 carries a mintage low enough that secondary market premiums above face value appeared almost immediately after release.
