Interesting fact
The 8 Skilling coin from Norway, issued during the reign of Carl XIV (1825-1827), features an interesting design element - a small crown on the obverse side, which represents the King's crown. This coin was minted during a time when Norway was still under Danish rule, and the design was influenced by the Danish coinage of the period. The inclusion of the small crown on the obverse side was a subtle way to assert Norwegian identity and independence, despite being under foreign rule.
