Interesting fact
The Pattern 10 Øre - Haakon VII (Copper-nickel plated iron pattern strike) 1954 from Norway is interesting because it was minted during a time of great change in Norway's monetary system. In 1954, the country was transitioning from using the Norwegian krone to the Scandinavian Monetary Union's common currency, the Danish krone. As a result, this coin was one of the last coins minted under the old monetary system before the transition.
