Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 4 Mark - Christian V 1690-1695 from Norway made of Silver (.672) weighing 22.27 g is that it was minted during a time when Norway was still under Danish rule, and the coinage of the two countries was closely linked. In fact, the coin was minted in the city of Copenhagen, which was the capital of Denmark at the time. Despite being minted in Denmark, the coin features the image of King Christian V of Norway, highlighting the connection between the two countries.
