50 Pennia silver coin minted for the Grand Duchy of Finland under the sovereignty of the Russian Empire, with the heraldic-detailed and powerful imperial double-headed eagle. The relief is well defined, especially on the wings and the central shield, preserving original luster with a uniform light silver patina. The fields show small marks typical of the grade, maintaining an overall fresh and attractive appearance. The reverse, with clear typography framed by a laurel and an oak crown, reflects the aesthetic sobriety characteristic of early-20th-century Finnish issues, in a historical context marked by tensions preceding Finland’s independence in 1917.
