Sheencrofter Valued Member Ireland 201 Posts	Posted 05/18/2012 1:05 pm I have a number of Ore coins in values of 1, 2, 5, 25 and 50. I also have a couple of 1 Krones.They are all in the 1950's and 1960's period. Originally I thought they were Swedish coins, but now I wonder if they are Danish. Or both. Do both countries use the same coinage? Also I get the impression from research that this period would not be worth more than face value. Any help and advice would be appreciated.. Sheen.

And while Denmark, Norway, and Sweden have similar names to their denominations (sometimes spelled differently), they as a rule have a national distinction somewhere on a coin. You can look at different countries on the World Coin Gallery and match your coins with their images. Report this Post to the Staff
DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 05/18/2012 1:52 pm Sheen, We discussed this subject once before--that should serve as a good primer on identifying the coins by their respective countries. Perhaps I'm just familiar with Nordic languages, but the modern coins are easily identifiable by nation. Edited by DVCollector 05/18/2012 2:03 pm Report this Post to the Staff
