Interesting fact
The 1 Speciedaler coin from Norway, issued during the reign of Christian VII (1792-1795), features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally added to the coin to prevent it from being used as a playing piece in games, as gambling was illegal in Norway at the time. This interesting fact adds a layer of historical context and cultural significance to the coin, making it a truly unique piece for collectors and history enthusiasts.
