Interesting fact
The 2 Skilling Dansk coin from Denmark, issued during the reign of Christian V in 1686, features an interesting design element - a crowned shield with the coat of arms of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. This symbolizes the political union between the three countries, which was established in 1380 and lasted until 1523.
