Silver 5 Lati coin, considered one of the most emblematic issues of the Republic of Latvia during the interwar period. The obverse features the famous allegorical female portrait popularly known as “Milda,” symbol of the Latvian nation, depicted in right profile with a gathered braid and a traditional headdress decorated with stars, in a design of great elegance and artistic refinement. The reverse shows the national coat of arms of Latvia held by a lion and a griffin, crowned by three stars symbolizing the country’s historical regions, together with the denomination of 5 Lati and the issue date. The specimen retains full and well-defined reliefs, with abundant original shine visible under a soft silver patina. The fields show light contact marks typical of a non-circulated conservation, consistent with the MS62 grade, maintaining an excellent visual presence. This piece is one of the great icons of Baltic numismatics and represents an important testimony to Latvian independence prior to World War II.
