I have a norge 1 ore coin I was curious about. On one side it says 1 ore with three triangles around it and on the other side it says NORGE around the top edge and then has a lion? or something holding an axe(on a shield) It looks to maybe say 10x41 or 19x41 or something like that. Just curious as to if anyone could tell me more about it and if it has any value to it. Thanks! -edit It looks exactly like this one except its a 1 ore http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...way10Ore.jpgIdentified - moved to World Coins forum - SapEdited by EuphoricDorian

Sounds like a 1 ore piece from Norway.

How do you tell the year on them? looks exactly like the one in the link I posted except its a 1 ore not 10. Are they rare at all or possibly worth anything?

The crossed hammers on older Norwegian coins is a mintmark for Kongsberg. And, some newer coins will say Noreg, Nynorsk for Norway.  |

That was minted during the German WWII occupation. It's iron.
Can you read the date? It's on both sides of the mintmark, like my coin above.

 Mintage 13 million. Not much value, but a piece of history. |

I got it along with a handful of other foreign coins from a renfaire or sumthing, one of which was a 1942 5 pfenning. It also had some asian? coins. Not sure where most of them went though.

that 1867 coin looks real nice and more than a hundred years old! if its an 1867 furniture its classified as an antique, but since its a coin, probably just in its teens  Edited by Nic
