<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collect89, post: 1675891, member: 15445&quot;]<b>Thule - Kap York</b></p><p><br /></p><p>There was a trading station in Northwest Greenland founded by Knud Rasmussen in 1910. Rasmussen was a Danish polar explorer and anthropologist.&nbsp; I believe that He bought the schooner &quot;Kap York&quot; for the Thule station in 1913.</p><p><br /></p><p>This Thule Kap York trading post is located <u>way up north</u>.&nbsp; According to Krause, the Thule Kap York money circulated from 1914 to 1937, but the all the minor coins bear the date of the founding year.&nbsp; The larger 5 &amp; 10 Kroner denominations bear a 1932 date.&nbsp; Like the Greenland Mining Corp tokens previously posted in this thread, the Thule Kap York tokens were also produced by L. Chr. Lauer, Nürnberg, Germany.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
