In the early 1980s, Denmark's National Bank commissioned a series of pattern trials to redesign the circulating coinage, testing multiple design variants and compositional options before settling on final specifications. This piece represents Type IIb of that process — one of several intermediate proposals evaluated for the 2 Krone denomination before the holed format was confirmed for the issued series. The central hole, a feature retained from earlier Danish coinage tradition, complicated die engineering and added a step to the minting process that patterns like this one were partly produced to test.
