Comment
This is listed in Krause's SCWC as KM#205 for the years from 1700-1722. There is a clear distinction though between the years 1700-1712 and 1719-1722 in the weight of the coins. For the years 1700-1712 the weight is 1,11 grams and for the years 1719-1722 the weight is 0,77 grams. That is why the coins were split into to coin sheets, in order to follow the norwegian catalogs that are listing the two coins separately.Interesting fact
The 1 Skilling coin from Norway, issued during the reign of Frederik IV (1700-1712), features an interesting design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally made during the minting process and was used as a way to test the coin's authenticity. The idea behind it was that only a genuine coin would have a perfectly round and centered hole, while a counterfeit coin would likely have an irregular or off-center hole. This unique feature makes the 1 Skilling coin stand out among other coins of its time and adds an extra layer of authenticity to its design.
