Description:
Obverse
The obverse of the coin features the coat of arms of Lithuania made up of stylised droplets of water. The coin also features the inscriptions LIETUVA (LITHUANIA), the year of issue (2018), denomination (€5) and the mintmark of the Lithuanian Mint.
Reverse
The reverse of the coin features symbols characteristic of the Lithuanian midsummer celebration Joninės: a blooming fern, the moon, the sun, and a greenery wreath that twists into a whirlwind, in the centre of which is a ‘fern blossom’, as if peeking through a drop of dew. The ‘fern blossom’ was created using a pad-printing technology. The composition is surrounded by the inscriptions JONINĖS and RASOS ŠVENTĖ.
