| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued to mark the 25th wedding anniversary of Christian X and Queen Alexandrine, this coin was struck at a moment of particular political sensitivity — just two years after the king's autocratic dismissal of his own government during the Easter Crisis of 1920, which had severely damaged his popularity and nearly cost Denmark its constitutional monarchy. A public celebration of the royal marriage was, in part, a deliberate exercise in rehabilitation.
The Copenhagen mint produced this as a genuine commemorative rather than a circulation piece, and surviving examples in high grades are common for precisely that reason.
