Original coins from the wartime years. Obviously no longer valid tender, but great thing to have in your pockets.
The coins we have available are all identical, except that hey just have a different year stamp. Pre 1939 coins are from 1918 – 1938. Post 1945 coins are from Late 1940s.
Troops could make purchases of everyday items even near the front lines from “canteens” organized by Lotta Svärd and other auxiliary organizations. 100 Penni is equal to 1 Markka.
