There are dozens of lighthouses in Finland, of which the lighthouses of Bengtskär, Utö, Porkkala, Märket, Russarö, Harmaja, Suomenlinna, Tankar and Isokari have received their own coinages. The tenth coinage in the series is dedicated to all Finnish lighthouses, which still impress lovers of nature and cultural history with their compelling tales from beyond the centuries.
The Coinage 2015/I includes the Finnish metal circulation coins of 2015 in BU quality and is the tenth lighthouse-themed coinage to be struck by Mint of Finland. This milestone is celebrated by a commemorative medal to all Finnish lighthouses, set in the middle of the coinage. The medal is designed by Erkki Vainio.
