Even if it is a sign of payment and not a coin in real terms, these government tokens are included in the current coins catalogues alongside real coins.Interesting fact
The A Token 3 Skilling - Frederik VI (Rigsbank Token) 1815 from Denmark made of Copper weighing 3.75 g is interesting because it was used as a form of currency in Denmark during the early 19th century, specifically between 1813 and 1838. It was issued by the Danish National Bank, Rigsbank, and was equivalent to 3 skilling, a fraction of the Danish rigsdaler currency. The coin was made of copper and had a distinctive design, featuring an image of King Frederik VI on one side and the Danish coat of arms on the other. Despite its relatively small value, the coin is now a rare and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
