Interesting fact
The 10 Øre coin from Norway featuring King Haakon VII, minted between 1920 and 1923, is interesting because it was produced during a time of great change in Norway's monetary system. In 1920, Norway officially adopted the krone as its currency, replacing the Norwegian crown, which had been in use since 1875. The 10 Øre coin was one of the first coins to be minted in the new currency, and it features a portrait of King Haakon VII, who ruled Norway during this time of transition. Despite the changes, the coin still maintained the same design and composition as previous 10 Øre coins, made of copper-nickel and weighing 1.5 grams. This coin is a unique piece of history that showcases Norway's evolution towards a modern monetary system.
