Interesting fact

The coin was made of Billon, a metal alloy composed of 31.2% silver and 68.8% copper, which was a more affordable option than pure silver. Despite the economic challenges, the coin still features a detailed design, including an image of King Frederik V on one side and a crowned shield with the Danish coat of arms on the other. This coin is a testament to the resourcefulness and resilience of the Danish people during a difficult period in their history.
