5 Øre - Olav V Trial strike

Trial strikes from Den Kongelige Mynt at Kongsberg are institutional rarities — produced in controlled quantities for internal approval processes and almost never released through normal channels. This 1973 piece predates the actual discontinuation of the 5 øre denomination, which was finally withdrawn in 1982, suggesting it may have been part of a routine die or alloy verification run rather than any redesign initiative.
