I like big kroners and I cannot lie

I don't really know why but I like something about the big, yellowish Danish krones and kroners. I recently bought a big group of them from my LCS. I was planning to sell most of them but they're calling my name. "Keep me," they say. Some of these have good book value but in my experience they don't tend to sell for as much as they catalog for. Here's the group I picked up.

2 kroners:

 

Here's the only Danish Kroner I have a photo of:
1930 2 Kroner, .800 AG, 60th birthday of King Christian X Commem
If I look around I may have others...

 

I have only 1 of the Kroners, a little more modern. The rest of my Danish coins are all smaller denominations

 

Found a couple in my unpackaged "junk" bin.
Unfortunately, there's a sizable gouge in the 1942 one.
Still, they are handsome coins.


The bins mentioned. Only a couple Danish Krone in the whole bunch, but there were several smaller coins mixed in.

1900-1960

1850-1900

 

That looks more like a lamination issue to me?

I like these too.

 

My other 2 Kr, now I've had chance to sort the photos:

 

5 Kr :

 

And a 10 Kr:

 

Here’s one I just came across.

 

I'm not a Kroner collector but your title whispered to me and drew me in.

Congrats on the finds. Nice colors and condition.

 

Got me a lot of Danish Kroners too

 

It’s interesting to see how the designs kept their continuity through the German occupation.

 

I’m also seeing a lamination error.

 

Some more:

 

A few Danish coins I just pulled from my world coin bunch.

 

Found another

 

Egads...don't tape coins into albums...in my opinion.

 

The 10 cent bin brought me some good luck today with these three:
Denmark, 1 Krone, 1925, 1946 and 1957
