This provincial coin with a nominal value of five euros depicts the lynx. The collector coin's reverse bears the historic coat of arms of Tavastia.
The lynx, best known for its ear tufts and spotted coat, is the emblematic animal of Tavastia. The animal is rarely seen since it is mostly nocturnal and moves without making a sound. Finland's only wild feline prefers rocky forest terrain. Finnish lynx populations have rebounded in recent decades thanks to the protected status of the species.
