Descrizione del dritto	The Finnish coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a crowned rampant lion to the left, its right foreleg replaced by an armoured hand brandishing a sword, while the hind paws trample upon a sabre. The shield is rendered in fine relief with heraldic cross-hatching. The date is divided by the lower portion of the shield, with the year numerals appearing to each side. A mintmaster's initial appears below the date in the lower field.

Informazioni aggiuntive	Finland's copper-nickel coinage of the interwar period was produced under the shadow of a country still consolidating its monetary independence following the 1917 declaration and the brutal civil war that followed. The Helsinki Mint — one of the few national mints to operate continuously through the turmoil of the early republic — struck this series across a twelve-year run that ended as the Winter War with the Soviet Union began. The 1940 issues are notably scarce, with production curtailed by wartime disruption.
