Lithuania 1½ Euro 2019 Smelt Fishing by Attracting. Averse: Both sides of the coin feature smelt fishing by attracting: wooden mallets rhythmically strike the end of a board placed in the man-made opening in the ice and create vibrations that attract the fish; these vibrations make the fish turn in circles and this way they are caught in the nets. The obverse of the coin depicts the view from above the ice; reverse – the view from below it. The obverse of the coins features Vytis; the coat of arms of Lithuania; formed as if from frost. The coins also feature the inscriptions LIETUVA (LITHUANIA); the year of issue (2019) and denomination €1.50. Lettering: LIETUVA 2019 1.50€. Reverse: Both sides of the coin feature smelt fishing by attracting: wooden mallets rhythmically strike the end of a board placed in the man-made opening in the ice and create vibrations that attract the fish; these vibrations make the fish turn in circles and this way they are caught in the nets.
