		Finland	100th birthday of philosopher Georg Henrik von Wright	20001 20002
	Description : Georg Hendrik von Wright (1916‐2003), Finnish‐Swedish philosopher and logician (of Scottish ancestry), executor of Ludwig Wittgenstein's estate, created a system of deontic logic. The coin, designed by Nora Tapper, shows an ancient Doric column on the right, symbolising Wrights early ideals (who visited Paestum in 1937), the universal man. The oak branch, symbol of wisdom, dignity and strength, represents the philosopher's personality, the number of oak leaves is supposed to represent the three disciplines to which the philosopher devoted himself: Theoretical Philosophy, Social and Moral Philosophy and Cultural Philosophy. The lettering "GEORG HENRIK VON WRIGHT" runs in an arc from left to right. The year of issue "2016" appears at the top, to the left of which a lion (the heraldic animal of Finland) is depicted the mint mark of the Finnish mint Suomen Rahapaja OY in Vantaa, as well as the country abbreviation "FI" (Finland).
