Comments
Silver medal as part of the Finnish Graduates mint set series minted 2003 - 2018.
This mint set token has on the obverse side a Finnish high school graduation hat, known as ylioppilaslakki, with white octagonal cap with a narrow black visor and a small lyre emblem, symbolizing completion of the lukio (upper secondary school) matriculation exam. The reverse side has the same lyre emblem, but full sized.
This silver medal was first a dated token carrying each year the current year date.
After 2006 kept the same image , but the token material changed to cupper nickel and was issued without a specific date, so it could be used every year.
