Автор графического дизайна монеты Арвид Приедите изобразил на монете латвийские ценности — добродетель труда и любовь к труду, — которые не были утрачены с течением времени. Как музей – это не просто дом, так и старинные инструменты – это не просто вещи. Всё хранит в себе прикосновение руки человека, рассказ о времени, в котором жил этот человек, о его работе, семье и нации. А труд был священным для народа на протяжении веков.
