About this banknote
The 20 mark banknote was issued by the Bank of Finland in 1939. This series was introduced as part of Finland's regular currency issuance during the late 1930s to accommodate the country's economic needs before World War II. The issuance was designed to align with the standardization of Finnish currency during this period.
The banknote features a central motif of a stylized tree on the front side, accompanied by numerical denominations "20." The reverse side displays the Finnish coat of arms within intricate patterns. Printed on paper, this note is predominantly purple with a light greenyblue underprint, measuring 120 x 68 mm. It was produced in a quantity of 38,000,000 pieces.
