Comments

Copper Nickel token 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. 

Before 2007 this was a Silver medal with a year date, carrying each year the current year date . 

This Graduates 2007-2018 token kept the same image , but the token material changed to copper nickel and was issued without a specific date, so it could be used every year.
