Comment

These coins were struck at the Royal Mint in London, that's why the mint mark of the Royal Mint of Denmark (♥) is missing. They were minted in 1941 and 1942, but all coins are dated 1941.

It was pegged with the British Pound at the rate of 22.4 FKr = 1 GBP

Interesting fact

The 25 Øre coin from the Faroe Islands featuring Christian X has a unique feature - it has a hole in the center, which was a common design element for coins in the Faroe Islands during that time period.
