| Anmerkungen |
This 1878 issue predates Finland's formal monetary independence — the Bank of Finland operated under Russian imperial authority throughout this period, with the Finnish markka pegged to gold following the 1865 reform that severed its tie to the Russian ruble. A 500 Markkaa denomination represented serious purchasing power; these were not notes that passed through many hands in daily trade.
Pick A45 is among the rarer nineteenth-century Finnish issues, partly because high-denomination notes of this era were often cancelled and archived rather than circulated to exhaustion. Surviving uncancelled examples warrant close scrutiny of the cancellation points along the margins.
