Interesting fact
The 12 Skilling coin from Norway, issued during the reign of Carl XV in 1865, features a unique design element - a small crown on the obverse side, which was added to symbolize the king's role as the "Crown Prince of Norway." This coin was minted during a time when Norway was still in a personal union with Sweden, and the crown symbolized the king's connection to both countries. This interesting fact adds historical significance to an already beautiful and valuable coin.
