Description
The "Fairy Tale Coin I. Five Cats" is the first collector coin in a special series of coins dedicated to the most dearly loved and significant Latvian fairy tales. The Latvian fairy tale about the five cats is one of those which parents tend to read to their children as a bedtime story and which they are always asked to read again.
The graphic design of the coin has been created by Anita Paegle, while the author of the plaster model is Jānis Strupulis.
