| Opschrift voorzijde | ATLANTIC WALRUS 6 SIX KRONER GREENLAND Odobenus r. rosmarus |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central vignette presents a whale's tail fluke breaching above calm arctic waters, with dramatic rocky coastal formations and a glacier visible in the background, all rendered in a fine intaglio-like style. The left border carries a tall ornate panel of dark red geometric and Inuit-inspired decorative motifs. To the right, a panel contains the collector's disclaimer text, a facsimile governor's signature, and a grid of six silhouette vignettes representing diverse Greenlandic wildlife species. |

Greenland has issued commemorative banknotes before, but the 2025 series marks a notable shift — these are the first notes issued under Greenlandic authority designed explicitly as collectibles rather than circulating currency, reflecting the territory's ongoing push toward greater administrative and cultural autonomy from Denmark. The 6 Kroner denomination has no practical monetary function; it exists outside the Danish krone system entirely and carries no legal tender status in day-to-day commerce.
The walrus holds specific subsistence significance in Greenlandic Inuit culture, and its selection is a deliberate editorial choice, not decorative filler.
