Interesting fact
The 25 Øre coin from Norway featuring King Haakon VII, minted between 1921 and 1923, is interesting because it was produced during a time of great change in Norway's monetary system. In 1921, Norway officially adopted the krone as its currency, replacing the Norwegian crown, which had been in use since 1875. The 25 Øre coin was one of the first coins to be minted in the new currency, and it features a portrait of King Haakon VII, who ruled Norway from 1905 until his death in 1957. Despite the coin's small denomination, it is a significant piece of Norwegian numismatic history, and it is highly sought after by collectors today.
