| 正面描述 | Central field dominated by the Icelandic coat of arms — a quartered shield bearing the cross of the Danish-Icelandic union, surmounted by a royal crown. Flanking the shield are the royal cipher letters C and R (for Christianus Rex), with the Roman numeral X incorporated into the C monogram at left, identifying the issuer as King Christian X of Denmark. The date 1942 is inscribed in the field, divided on either side of the crown, with 19 to the left and 42 to the right. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. |

Iceland's zinc coinage of 1942 was a direct consequence of wartime metal shortages — copper and nickel had been redirected to Allied war production following the British occupation of Iceland in May 1940. Zinc was the fallback. These pieces corrode aggressively in circulation, and surviving examples free of pitting or surface degradation are genuinely difficult to locate.
Iceland was still formally under Danish sovereignty at the time of striking, though the Althing had assumed full executive authority in 1941 pending a formal independence referendum.
