I recently got an excellent danmark from 1924, and a french quarter from 1939.

I suspect these coins were engineered with better health in mind. Specifically solar ionic health.

Any ideas?

Denmark issued five coin types in 1924: 10 ore, 25 ore, 1/2 krone, 1 krone and 2 kroner. You'll need to be more specific about which one you have.

The "French quarter" is presumably a French 25 centimes.

Not entirely sure what your comment about "solar ionic health" is supposed to mean, but I have two guesses.

If your Denmark coin is a 10 or 25 ore, then it's a reference to the coins having holes in them.

If your Denmark coin is a 1 or 2 krone, then I presume it's a reference to the golden colour? The Danish coins are made of nikel-bronze, while the French coins are aluminium-bronze, an alloy many countries have used since the early 20th century. Both these alloys give coins a golden-brown colour, without looking too "brassy".

And the nickel-bronze ones aren't very healthy at all, actually; a significant proportion of the Scandinavian population is allergic to nickel, which is alleged to have been triggered by the nickel-bronze alloy coinage in use throughout Scandinavia in the 20th century. This nickel allergy outbreak is the reason why "nordic gold" was invented: a gold-coloured alloy containing no nickel. Nordic gold (composition 89% copper, 5% aluminium, 5% zinc, 1% tin, 0% actual gold) is a form of aluminium-brass.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

Me thinks you may be right Mr Graham.
