Interesting fact

The 1 Øre coin from Denmark featuring Christian X, minted between 1913 and 1923, is notable for its unique design. The coin's obverse features a portrait of King Christian X, while the reverse bears an image of the Danish coat of arms. This coin was made of bronze and weighed 2 grams. Interestingly, the coin's design was created by the Danish sculptor and medallist, Anders Bundgaard. Bundgaard's design was chosen as the winner of a competition held by the Danish National Bank in 1912. The coin's mintage was relatively low, with only 1.4 million coins produced during its 10-year production run. Today, this coin is considered a collector's item and can be found in auctions and online marketplaces.
