About the coin: the coin highlights the 100th anniversary of Latvian de Jure recognition, obtained on January 26, 2021. Latvia gained its independence in 1918, however it received its De Jure recognition almost three years later. In 1921 five countries - Belgium, United Kingdom, Japan, France and Italy were the first countries to grant Latvia De Jure recognition. Soon Romania, Poland, Finland, Portugal, Germany, Austria, Iran, Denmark, Sweden and Norway seconded the motion. This year marks a special anniversary when Latvia became a recognized and legitimate country.
