Coin description
The importance and mission of Lithuania’s defence can be characterised by the following key elements: territorial integrity, safeguarding interests by protecting and promoting the country’s independence, and an active role in contributing to regional and international security which helps to find unity with the community that protects and upholds common values.
The anti-tank barrier, also known as the Czech hedgehog, serves as a symbol and tool, as well as a reminder that freedom is a result of the strength of the nation’s spirit, while readiness to defend oneself sends a message that the country and every citizen has both the right and the opportunity to contribute to creating a free Lithuania in a free Europe and a free world.
