Beschrijving voorzijde The obverse displays the Norwegian royal coat of arms at center: a shield bearing a crowned, rampant lion passant holding a battleaxe, rendered in bold relief. The legend NORGE arcs along the upper periphery in large incuse Latin letters. Flanking the shield at left and right in the field are two symmetrical monograms composed of interlaced letters, representing the royal cipher of King Haakon VII. The overall design is plain and heraldic in character, struck in iron with a dark, matte surface typical of wartime production.

Aanvullende informatie

Norway's small-denomination coinage underwent a forced material substitution after the German occupation began in April 1940. The shift to iron reflected wartime metal rationing imposed across occupied Europe, with copper and bronze redirected to German military production. These coins were struck under occupation but retained Haakon VII's effigy — a deliberate political choice by the puppet Quisling administration to maintain an appearance of monetary continuity, even as the king himself was directing the government-in-exile from London.

Iron strikes from this series corrode readily, and uncorroded survivors are considerably scarcer than raw survival numbers suggest.
