The provincial coin, with a nominal value of five euros, depicts the fox with Turku Castle in the background. The collector coin's reverse bears the historic coat of arms of Finland Proper.
The emblematic animal of Finland Proper, the fox, is a wily protagonist of many fairy stories and folk tales. The fox is an adaptable animal that is not overly choosy about its habitat or food. Despite being hunted extensively, the fox remains common all over Finland. Its intelligence and adaptability have enabled the fox to survive in diverse environments regardless of hunting.
