Interesting fact
The 50 Pennia coin from Finland was designed by the artist Eric O. W. Ehrström, who was a well-known Finnish sculptor and medalist. His design features a stylized image of a spruce tree, which is a common motif in Finnish art and symbolizes strength and resilience. The coin's design has remained largely unchanged since its introduction in 1943, and it has become a recognizable symbol of Finnish culture and identity.
