Finnish Carolean Soldier 2 Markka Stamp
Finland · 1940 · 2 mk
A brown-toned stamp depicting a Carolean soldier in profile, wearing a uniform and hat, with 'SUOMI FINLAND' and '2 mk' at the bottom.
Issued in 1940, this stamp likely commemorates Finland's historical ties to the Swedish Empire and its military heritage, possibly during a period of national identity assertion amidst World War II.
