There is a 1941 Denmark copper 5 ore struck in Britain for the then British occupied, Danish territory, Faroe Islands.&nbsp; The homeland 1941 Denmark issue 5 ore, from German occupied Denmark, had an aluminum composition.&nbsp; Similar with Iceland, a Danish territory at the start of WW2, the Brits struck a copper 1942 and 1944 5 aurar for British occupied Iceland.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
