<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collect89, post: 1667846, member: 15445&quot;]In 1921 Denmark claimed the entire island, and Greenland was made a colony of the crown in 1924.&nbsp; These milled coins of the Danish Colony are dated 1926.&nbsp; The obverse has the crowned arms of Denmark with the legend GRØNLANDS STYRELSE.&nbsp; I believe this roughly translates to “Greenland Government”.&nbsp; The reverse depicts the popular walking polar bear with date &amp; denomination.&nbsp; The 25 Ore is made of Copper-Nickel.&nbsp; The 50 Ore &amp; 1 Kroner coins are Aluminum-Bronze.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Please bear with me while I locate my Greenland photos. The last time I posted them at CT was in December 2009 and they seem to be lost.&nbsp; In the mean time, here is the 50 Ore photo.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
