Iceland was still under Danish sovereignty in 1919, which explains both the portrait subject and the Copenhagen printer. Landssjóður Íslands — the state treasury rather than a central bank — issued these notes as Iceland's home rule arrangement, granted in 1904, had given Reykjavík administrative authority but not full monetary independence. H.H. Thiele was Denmark's premier security printer of the period, responsible for Danish state printing broadly, and the pairing of Olrik and Heilmann as designers brought genuine artistic weight to what was effectively a colonial-era treasury instrument.
Pick 7 is the scarcest of the Christian X landssjóður issues. Iceland gained sovereignty in 1918, so this 1919 printing sits in the brief window of the Kingdom of Iceland under personal union with Denmark — technically independent, yet still printing its currency in Copenhagen.
