Country name in Finnish and Swedish on the ring Fishing nets were woven at home as winter work, often from hand-spun single-stranded linen yarn. Early on, the nets were three meters high, and they became increasingly larger particularly as the stone anchor was replaced by the storm-proof iron anchor. The reverse features the historical region´s coat of arms and the face value, 5 EURO.
