Description
Sisu is a Finnish concept described as stoic determination, tenacity of purpose, grit, bravery, resilience, and hardiness and is held by Finns themselves to express their national character. It is generally considered not to have a literal equivalent in English.
The Finnish people have always been driven by their spirit of perseverance (sisu). The modern sisu is the wisdom of the heart, taking care of our neighbours and common affairs and, most of all, the courage to dream and set goals. This is manifested as individual survival stories, displays of community spirit and bold innovations. Finnish sisu has placed us on the world stage, providing a universal example of what a little grit can achieve.
The official Finnish Sisu collector coin speaks of the importance of perseverance in the face of adversity. The Finnish Sisu coin is a harmonious combination of sensitivity and strength.
The maximum mintage of the proof-quality EUR 20 silver Finnish Sisu collector coin is 5,000, and 50 coins will be numbered. The coins are numbered on the reverse, and the numbered coins are sold separately in beautiful glass cases.
The coins have been granted the Key Flag Symbol of Finnish origin.
