Description

House of Emirates® is proud to present its elite clientele with an extraordinary numismatic treasure: the Finland 1000 Markkaa, 1999 – Jean Sibelius. This exquisite gold commemorative is not only a tribute to one of Finland’s greatest artistic figures, but also a relic from a mint whose era has now come to an end.

Struck in radiant 0.900 fine gold, weighing 8.64 g and measuring 22 mm in diameter, this masterpiece shines with the highest Proof quality. Its mirrored fields and delicately frosted details capture light with dramatic clarity, echoing the elegance and emotional depth of Sibelius’ music. Encapsulated for impeccable preservation, it comes with its original presentation box and certificate of authenticity, offering collectors a complete and prestigious set.

A Minting Legacy Now Closed

This coin gains significant rarity because it was struck by the historic Mint of Finland, the nation’s official minting institution founded in the 19th century. For more than a century and a half, it produced Finland’s currency and numerous commemorative issues with renowned craftsmanship. Recently, the mint ceased operations entirely, making any coin struck under its name part of a permanently closed chapter in Finland’s numismatic heritage.

A Rare Symphony in Gold

This 1000 Markkaa gold issue stands today as a scarce and increasingly coveted investor’s item. Its rarity, its artistry, and its connection to the now-closed Mint of Finland elevate it far beyond ordinary commemoratives.

A symphony in gold.
A tribute to genius.
A rare masterpiece for the most discerning connoisseur.
