| Obverse description | The copper-nickel centre features an abstract design in which a bold, flowing S-shaped curve bisects the field, evoking a sense of movement and unity between nations. The date '2006' is inscribed horizontally across the upper portion of the centre, while the bilingual legend 'SUOMI FINLAND' runs vertically through the middle of the design. The brass outer ring is adorned with stylised runic or calligraphic letter motifs and a border of twelve five-pointed stars, referencing the European Union. The interplay between the silver-toned centre and the golden ring reinforces the bimetallic character of the piece. |
