| Reverse description | The reverse presents a richly textured naturalistic composition depicting Finnish flora, with three large ranunculus (buttercup) blossoms rendered in high sculptural relief dominating the copper-nickel centre. Surrounding the flowers are detailed depictions of moss and lichen, which extend into the aluminium bronze outer ring, creating a seamless transition between the two metallic zones. The engraver's initial 'P' appears discreetly to the right within the ring. The overall design conveys a vivid, tactile representation of the Finnish natural landscape, characteristic of the Flora commemorative series. |
