The collector coin paying tribute to Tavastians lynx is most beautiful in proof quality. Proof-quality collector coins are minted with a polished die, finished, and placed in a protective clear plastic casing set in a package that tells the coin's story. The coin will best withstand the test of time and remain as a memento in your collection in its original package.
This provincial coin with a nominal value of five euros depicts the lynx. The collector coin's reverse bears the historic coat of arms of Tavastia.
This beautiful collector coin is part of the Animals of the Provinces series, which is the third coin series minted in honour of Finland's historic provinces. The first collector coin of Tavastia launched by Mint of Finland in 2011 speak of a tradition of life out in the wild. For the Provincial buildings series, Tavastia received in 2013 a coin commemorating a place, Church of St. Lawrence, where the people of Tavastia have congregated for more than a millennium.
Lynx is best known for its ear tufts
The lynx, best known for its ear tufts and spotted coat, is the emblematic animal of Tavastia. The animal is rarely seen since it is mostly nocturnal and moves without making a sound. Finland's only wild feline prefers rocky forest terrain. Finnish lynx populations have rebounded in recent decades thanks to the protected status of the species.
