Leikkausmarkkinen
Leikkausmarkkinen refers to a specific type of Finnish currency note, particularly those issued in the early to mid-20th century. The term "leikkaus" in Finnish translates to "cut" or "notch," and "markkinen" refers to the Finnish Markka, the former currency of Finland. The name "leikkausmarkkinen" likely originates from the physical characteristics of these banknotes, which often featured perforations or distinctive cuts along the edges. These markings could have served various purposes, such as security features to prevent counterfeiting or for identification by bank tellers or the public.
These notes were in circulation during a period of significant economic and political change in Finland. They
