I think these people were not the engravers, but the directors of the mint at the time of minting ...

quote:
"On Finnish coins produced after 1945 the following initials of directors of the Finnish Mint can be found:
• S - Isak Gustaf Sundell (in years 1912 - 1947)
• L - Vesa Uolevi Liuhto (1948)
• H - Peippo Uolevi Helle (1948 - 1958)
• S - Allan Alarik Soiniemi (1958 - 1975)
• K - Timo Kauko Koivuranta (1976 - 1983)
• N - Reino Tapio Nevalainen (1983 - 1987)
• M - Reino Tapio Makkonen (1987 - 2006)"

According to some pages Sundell also designed the coin ... but that then applies to every year of this type.

Hopefully some of the Finnish colleagues can add/correct this :)

HI,

here are the official initials, but if engraver, director or cleaning women, it doesn't say, according to KM, edt 46.

these were the directors ...

did not find a list of the sanitary assistants over the years and/or if they left their initials on the coins after polishing the dies

and again thanks, for the great documentation you keep making! very often used and much appreciated!

Last version? Who will change the numista?



Yeah, it's best to be the top of pyramid, if only with ONE single initial You certainly noticed that a family tried to get a monopole on the director's chair Here the last:

This a strange site (https://markyourcoin.weebly.com/helle-peippo-uolevi.html) since it doesn't say anything about being a blue- or white collar person
