		Finland	Fifth Enlargement of the European Union in 2004	20001 20002
	Description : The coin shows a stylised branch from which ten leaves are sprouting. This is a metaphorical theme: the ten shoots represent the EU enlargement to include the ten new member states (Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia), while the ground provides the foundation for growth. Below this floor are written the letters "EU" and "ρ" (small Rho); one reads Euro. The "2004" at the very top of the ring, and the small Rho at the bottom divide the twelve stars of Europe into two lateral groups of six stars each. The two initials "M" at the bottom right stand for the designer Pertti Mäkinen and the mint director Raimo Tapio Makkonen respectively. The coin bears no designation of the issuing state. It was minted without a mint mark by the Finnish mint Suomen Rahapaja OY in Vantaa.
