Opmerkingen

This note was issued under extraordinary circumstances: Napoleon's Continental System had effectively blockaded Britain, and Denmark-Norway — forced into alliance with France — faced the near-total collapse of its monetary infrastructure. The Kongelige Regjerings Commission in Christiania was established specifically to issue emergency paper currency after the Royal Bank in Copenhagen became inaccessible following the British bombardment of that city in September 1807 and the seizure of the Danish fleet.

The embossed stamp was the primary anti-counterfeiting measure, a pragmatic choice given the limited printing resources available in Christiania at the time. Norway had no established note-printing tradition, and the speed of the commission's establishment shows in the note's production values.

The series was short-lived — the commission was superseded within a few years as Danish monetary authority was reorganized under wartime pressure.
