Interesting fact
The 10 Markkaa coin from Finland, made of gold (.900) and weighing 3.2258g, is interesting because it was minted during a time when Finland was still a Grand Duchy of Russia, and it features the Russian imperial eagle on one side and the Finnish coat of arms on the other. This coin was used as circulating currency in Finland during that time and is now considered a rare and valuable collector's item.
