Description
In 2015, 70 years had passed since the end of the Second World War. The motifs of the collector coin dedicated to these years of peace depict the dramatic juxtaposition of war and peace, but also the bridge connecting the two.
The maximum mintage of the 70 Years of Peace in Europe collector coin is 10,000 pieces. In honour of the 70 years of peace in Europe, 70 pieces of the total mintage are numbered and packed in glass cases.
The coins have been granted the Key Flag Symbol of Finnish origin.
The collector coin is part of the Europa Coin Programme, also known as the European Silver Programme, or the Eurostar Programme. It is an initiative dedicated to the issuance of collector-oriented legal tender coins in precious metals to celebrate European identity. The issuing authorities of EU member countries voluntarily contribute coins to the Europa Coin Programme. Multiple countries have participated in the programme, beginning in 2004. Some coins are denominated in euro, others are denominated in other currencies.
