Interesting fact

The 10 Pennia coin from Finland, minted between 1941 and 1943, is interesting because it was produced during the country's transition from a monarchy to a republic. The coin features a unique design, with a crowned lion on one side and the Finnish coat of arms on the other, symbolizing the shift in power and the country's newfound independence.
