Interesting fact
The 1 Rigsbankskilling coin from Denmark, issued during the reign of Christian VIII in 1842, features an interesting design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally added to the coin's design to prevent it from being used as a button or other object, as the hole would make it unsuitable for such purposes. This unique feature sets the coin apart from other coins of its time and adds to its historical significance.
