I submitted it to ngc without commenting on it if its proof or not and they graded it as ms62.... I have doubts though Tried to compare with other specimens I found but could not find any like mine. What do you guys think? Report this Post to the Staff

Most of these commemorative pieces were kept by the public, and turn up in at least EF condition. These coins in this condition make a very pleasing addition to any collection of World coins. I have one myself, in only a slight grade below this one. This one MS61, mine AU 58. I think Krause prices are too low for these. Report this Post to the Staff
GEKO Valued Member United States 136 Posts	Posted 07/29/2013 05:33 am Well I do agree that catalog prices are too low for high grade specimens and I dont think they are that common to justify the price. Another nice example is the 1913 A 3 Mark from prussia with king Wilhelm. Mintage of 1 000 000 and MS63 price of 65$. Anyways here are some better pictures of the denmark coin What makes me wonder is the strong cameo So if its not a proof then it must be from the first strikes when the dies where still fresh I guess ? it definitely looks proof like.... Mmmmh... hahaha I guess I just wish it would be a proof Report this Post to the Staff

Dunno what the die for this coin was like, for the first strikes off it. Still, I would guess an early striking. With a million struck, perhaps 30 pairs of working dies were used.
