Issued by the organizing committee of the 14th World Scout Jamboree, held at Lillehammer, Norway in July–August 1975, this note circulated as internal camp currency — usable at jamboree trading posts and activity stations but worthless outside the site. "Nordjamb 75" was the official branding for the event, which drew roughly 17,000 scouts from over 90 countries. The denomination in "Nord Crowns" has no connection to any national currency; the unit was invented entirely for the occasion.

Scout jamboree scrip from this period is collected primarily as cinderella material rather than conventional notaphily, and the Lillehammer issue is among the better-documented examples from the 1970s circuit.
