Interesting fact

The 2 Frederiks d'Or coin from Denmark, issued during the reign of King Frederik VI (1826-1827), 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 detail highlights the historical significance of the coin and the political union between Denmark and Norway at the time.
