Beschrijving voorzijde Central field bears the crowned imperial cypher of Tsar Alexander II, composed of an ornate interlaced 'A' surmounted by a stylised 'II' below, the whole topped by the Russian imperial crown with flanking ribbon scrolls. The monogram is executed in a foliate, Baroque-influenced style with elaborate curling flourishes at the base. The design is contained within a raised inner circle, bordered by a fine dentilated rim along the coin's outer edge. No peripheral legend appears; the composition is entirely dominated by the crowned royal cipher. The overall style reflects the refined engraving standards of the Helsinki Mint's mid-19th century pattern issues.

Aanvullende informatie

The 1863 penni patterns were struck at Helsinki as Finland's monetary system was being formalized under Alexander II, who had granted the Finnish Senate authority to establish an independent currency — the markka — in that same year. These were exploratory strikes, produced to evaluate scale and planchet specifications before the series entered full production.

KM#Pn1 is among the earliest physical artifacts of Finnish monetary autonomy under the Russian imperial framework.
