Three Brothers

The tower coin issued on 27 September 2006 and presented at a press conference in Nuuk, Greenland.

The Three Brothers are three stone cairns that mark the sheltered water route off the west coast of Greenland. For several hundred years the cairns have been an important landmark for navigators.

The motif is designed by the Greenlandic sculptor Niels Motzfeldt as a depiction of the three cairns with Greenland's rock rose symbol in the background.
