1 Crown - Elizabeth II The White Rose of Finland

The "White Rose of Finland" title refers to the Order of the White Rose, Finland's oldest state decoration, established in 1919 following Finnish independence from Russia. The Isle of Man Government's relationship with this subject is essentially commemorative opportunism — the island has a long-established practice of issuing crown-sized pieces tied to foreign honors, anniversaries, and royalties with only the loosest jurisdictional connection to Man itself. KM#1230 is part of a dense cluster of Pobjoy Mint-produced issues from this period targeting the thematic collector market.
