Commemorations of Agricola

Mikael Agricola was recently selected as the main motif for a commemorative coin, the €10 Mikael Agricola and Finnish language commemorative coin, minted in 2007.

The reverse of the coin shows a quill referencing the writer; while the obverse side contains an artistic interpretation of a human figure.
