In Norway the Norwegian Bank each year issue a commemorative circulation coin. In 2015 this will be a Commemorative Coin for the Norwegian Supreme Court 1815-2015.

 

The winning motif was designed by the painter and graphic artist Christopher Rådlund, and is a reproduction of one of the two lion sculptures flanking the main stairway in the Supreme Court's entrance hall. The sculptures were modelled by Lars Utne (1862-1922) and cast in brass. The lion motif is also a recurring theme in the Supreme Court building.

 

The NOK 20 coin will be issued in the first half of 2015.

 

I think this one is one of the best in many years.
