Finland - 1 Finnish Markka - P-98a - Foreign Paper Money

1 Markka, P-98a. The markka (alternatively mark or Finnmark; Finnish: markka; Swedish: mark; sign: Mk; ISO code: FIM) was the currency of Finland from 1860 until 28 February 2002, when it ceased to be legal tender. The markka was divided into 100 pennies (Finnish: penni; Swedish: penni), abbreviated as "p". At the point of conversion, the rate was fixed at €1 = 5.94573 Mk.

The markka was replaced by the euro (€), which had been introduced, in cash form, on 1 March 2002. This was after a transitional period of three years, when the euro was the official currency but only existed as "book money" outside of the monetary base. The dual circulation period, when both the markka and the euro had legal tender status, ended on 28 February 2002. Read more at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finnish_markka
