The 2022 Finland 2 euro commemorative coin celebrates the centenary of the Finnish National Ballet, an institution that has played a central role in the country’s cultural landscape since its founding in 1922. The national side of the coin features a dynamic design depicting the fluid, expressive movements of a ballet dancer, capturing the grace and technical precision associated with this classical art form. By highlighting the ballet, Finland honours a century of artistic excellence and the evolution of dance as a vital component of its national identity. The composition reflects the elegance of the performers who have graced the stage of the Finnish National Opera and Ballet over the decades. This commemorative issue was released in 2022 with a mintage of 793,000 pieces.
