uncommon1900-1945
Finland 1931 Surcharge Coat of Arms
Finland · 1931 · 50p on 40p
A Finnish surcharge stamp from 1931 featuring the national coat of arms lion, with '50p' printed over the original '40p' denomination.
This surcharge likely indicates a change in postal rates in Finland during 1931, allowing existing 40 penni stamps to be revalued to 50 penni for continued use.
