Denmark 2 (1925) & 5 (1964) Kroner coins



~32.9mm & ~31.6mm; 15gm & 12.8gm

Bought a bag (about two pounds) of misc., mostly modern foreign coins from a fellow who cuts me a sweet deal for gettin' 'em outta his way.

The 1964 5 Kroner has proved to be a wee puzzle; all I can find is the silver wedding commemorative: this one I can't (yet) find.

And the 1925 2 Kroner I haven't yet searched out...but I like it for a lot of subtle reasons. Heft is one of them.

The bag will certainly yield several more worthy of posting here...and I will.

 

A dealer at the little show I attended a few weeks back had one, but it was by no means all-encompassing.

The big versions of these images are posted in the Conder thread, but here are two nice halfpenny tokens I picked up recently. Thought I'd post here also for the general "world coin" audience. Both token halfpennies are from the county of Suffolk, issued in 1794 and 1795, respectively.

 

Wow
One Very nice coin!
