Ordinary markka coins are illustrated in 61 types or photographic groups, from the Grand Duchy issues to the final dates of 2001. Each markka is divided into 100 penni. The new markka of 1963 is distinct from the earlier unit: one new markka equals one hundred old marks. Header dates are type ranges and do not imply minting in every year.
