Friday Free Finds - 5 - Lithuania Commemorative

Pictured Above from left to right: Snoras Bank Packaging for Lithuanian Commemorative 1 Litas coin, 1 Litas Reverse, 1 Litas Obverse


Here is yet another coin that my fiancees father brought back from his travels.  I'm not quite sure how and where he got these, but they are in BU (Brilliant Uncirculated) condition.  He gave me 2 of these and each in it's separate packaging from Snoras Bank, a Lithuanian bank.  This coin, dated 2011, was created to commemorate the 37th Basketball Championship hosted by Lithuania.  It has the same particulars as the circulation issue 1 Litas coin, but this one is more beautiful and very well designed! Although the packaging isn't so great, the coin was intended for general circulation, which means that if you were ever in Lithuania, you might be able to find one of these in your change! I got lucky and got 2 of them in packaging for free! Khup khun maak krob (Thank you very much in Thai).
