Interesting fact
The 24 Skilling coin from Norway, minted in 1865 during the reign of King Carl XV, has an interesting feature. Despite being made of silver (.875), it was designed with a unique wreath motif on the reverse side, which was created by the Norwegian artist, Ivar Throndsen. This wreath design was a departure from the traditional coin designs of the time, and it added a touch of Norwegian culture to the coin.
