Additional information

Åland, an autonomous demilitarized archipelago under Finnish sovereignty but with its own parliament and distinct Swedish-speaking culture, issued this coin as part of Finland's ongoing regional series. The islands' autonomous status dates to the 1921 League of Nations settlement, which resolved a postwar dispute between Finland and Sweden — a compromise neither country fully welcomed at the time.

Finland's bimetallic five-euro regional series ran from 2001 onward, with each province issued once. Åland's entry came near the end of the program.
