Description

Summer is the fourth commemorative coin released in the Northern Nature coin series. Six coins in total have been minted: Summer, Flora, Fauna, Winter, Wilderness and Waters.

This coin commemorates the northern midnight sun. The warmth, light and blooming nature of the North are worthy of getting a coin of their own.

The collector coin is packed in a coin purse made by the design company Globe Hope from recycled materials.
