Comment

The Standard Catalog of World Coins by mistake put 1919 in two articles: KM#812.1a and KM# 812.2a.

Interesting fact

The 1 Øre coin from Denmark featuring Christian X, minted between 1918 and 1919, is notable for being made of iron, a material that was used for coins during World War I as a substitute for the more commonly used copper, which was in short supply at the time. This makes it a unique and interesting piece of numismatic history.
