Comments

A new monogram of Queen Margarethe II was designed especially for the obverse of this series of coins.

 

These coins were minted by the Mint of Finland from 2017-2023.

 

Mint masters: 

Laust Grove (LG initials on obverse; 1990–2001)

Jørgen Strandgaard (JS initials on obverse; 2014–2015)

Lars Gerrild Sørensen (LGS initials on obverse; 2016)

 

Chief engravers: 

Jan Peterson (JP initials on obverse; 1990–2001)

Henrik Wiberg (HW initials on obverse; 2014–2016)

 

Varieties:

On the coins minted in 1990, the pellets on the reverse touch the ornament and the date on the obverse is in a smaller bold font. The other varieties are distinguished by the engraver and mint master marks on the obverse. Krause distinguishes between coins with (KM# 869.1) and without (KM# 869.2) mint master marks. Coins minted in 2016 exist both in coin and medal alignments.
