| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is dominated by the large numeral 25 positioned above the central hole, rendered in a bold serif typeface with decorative scrollwork framing the upper field. Flanking the hole on either side are two symmetrical pairs of ornate spiral volute devices, a decorative motif characteristic of Scandinavian coinage of the period. The denomination ØRE is inscribed in stylized lettering below the hole, enclosed within a decorative scrolled border running along the lower rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Produced in London by the Royal Mint under wartime emergency conditions, this issue exists because German occupation of Denmark in April 1940 severed the Faroe Islands from their normal coin supply. Britain, which had moved quickly to occupy the Faroes itself to prevent German use of the islands, authorized a small local coinage to keep commerce functioning. The distinctive Faroese ram reverse was chosen deliberately — a political signal that these were not Danish coins, quietly reinforcing the islands' distinct identity under British administration.
The entire 1941 series was struck in a single year and never repeated, making survivors in any grade genuinely scarce.
