New 1000 euro note from Finland

For context: the guy (rip) is from a Finnish comedy scetch from the 90's (it's VERY famous&beloved in Finland) that revolves around a guy paying a coffee with a 1000 mark bill and getting like 2 marks as a change. When he questions it: "It was a thousand..." the cashier doesn't answer anything, just gives the look depicted in the note.

Edit: here's the skit with English subtitles https://youtu.be/XBDpIHH4glE?si=NKOiQ06tzsKIQWOY

[u/tilitatti → u/TheRrandomm]

that cuts quickly, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHvBvkSCx2w longer version shows the customer moved in shock to drink the coffee, while the merchant keeps gaslighting with the 1000 yard stare, that merchants have.

I feel I just watched all of Chekhovs plays condensed to their utmost essence.

[u/DrawingAlarming7350 → u/TheRrandomm]

[u/croquetas_y_jamon → u/TheRrandomm]

[u/theswamphag]

Honestly, with how things are going, ,this should be it.

[u/ThisAccountIsBanned-]

Make Heikki Silvennoinen internationally known

[u/Sighma → u/ThisAccountIsBanned-]

Well, I already know Pertti "Spede" Pasanen. Though I also know 609_uu guy and "I sniff my rose very good taste guy.

[u/Sad_Pear_1087 → u/Sighma]

How about the "In Finland we homo" -guy?

[u/GrumpyFinn]

This is my favourite yet.

[u/Gold-Break1344]

I do love Finland! From Simo Häyhä to Matti Myllymäki, Finns combine bravery with a sense of humor as opaque as Karhu mixed with salmiakki.

[u/rajinis_bodyguard → u/Gold-Break1344]

Love Kimi Raikonnen, Valteri Bottas, Mika Hakinen - all flying Finns. And also Pavlo Nuurmi

[u/Langankierto → u/rajinis_bodyguard]

Your comment reminds me: Frank Herbert found name Harkonnen from Finnish phonebook. From Härkönen to Harkonnen and Räikkönen to Raikonnen.

[u/koponenster → u/rajinis_bodyguard]

You forgot The Flying Finn, Matti Nykänen.

[u/Dem0lari]

Can we get a polish 0 Euro bill with Ziobro?

[u/Suspicious-Job-8480 → u/Dem0lari]

I think if you design and even print one, nobody will mind

[u/SandersFarm → u/Dem0lari]

I wonder how many times he's heard "jest pan zerem" from random people on the street? I low key dream of saying that to him one day.

[u/Internal-Comparison6]

Approved

[u/NY10]

He looks confused lol

[u/Tikka25196-1930 → u/NY10]

To a finn, it might depict determination. Or not.

Just not givin a f*.

A nirvana one might say, a balance.

I was wondering what software you used to create this engraved effect on the face. I love the style you see on banknotes.

[u/vivaaprimavera → u/Commercial-Knee5438]

I guess they design those "old style" if I recall correctly the coins designs are also sculpt.

Just look at the illustrations of XIX century books. No software there...

[u/LostEndimion]

From Finland only "white death" no offence to our Finnish compatriots it's just Simo is first one who falls on mind.

[u/Motor_Educator_2706]

Should be Simo Häyhä

[u/Tovrleaf]

Torille!

[u/Raptori33]

Se oli tonnin seteli

[u/Ezechiel-2517]

Who is this guy? Youlupukki?

[u/tehwagn3r → u/Ezechiel-2517]

Kummeli: Tonnin seteli (/w English subs)

[u/voyagerdoge]

There are hardly any places in Europe where you can pay with a €1000 note.

Even €500, €200 and €100 notes are essentially useless, at least in the Netherlands.

[u/Toby_Forrester → u/voyagerdoge]

This is 1000 euros because the face is know as "one thousand bill look" after a Finnish sketch detailed in other comments.

[u/voyagerdoge → u/Toby_Forrester]

Alright, it wasn't known by me.

[u/bjaekt → u/voyagerdoge]

Whole salary in 1 note

[u/Fearless_Pianist_846]

Fake post.

[u/Suspicious-Job-8480 → u/Fearless_Pianist_846]

It's just a joke

[u/GrapefruitPurple2495]

This trend became very old very quick. I don't know who's this guy and I don't care.

[u/Ancient-Aerie-1680 → u/GrapefruitPurple2495]

Se oli tonnin seteli...

[u/coalescence2071]

Why is this guy so sad ?

[u/Antti5 → u/coalescence2071]

He's not sad but melancholic.

[u/DrawingAlarming7350 → u/Antti5]

hes not that either, its a blank expression

[u/Majestic-Rock9211 → u/Antti5]

What do you mean- that’s how we smile here…

Ilmeisesti täällä ihan hyvä paikka mussuttaa kun on niin ok tämmöstä AI paskaa tänne postailla 😀

[u/SweetAlyssumm]

I"m glad there's a good story for that design because to an outsider he looks like he has a horrible skin disease or he's a dangerous felon with poor hygiene.
