ANVISNING', flanked by two octagonal vignettes — a Viking longship under sail to the left and two armed warriors in combat to the right — with a central medallion carrying the denomination '10 Kr.' between them. The lower register is occupied by two text panels containing patriotic Danish verses, the whole composition framed within a decorative typographic border. |

A/S Bondens Selvstyre — "The Farmer's Self-Governance" — was a Danish cooperative credit institution operating in the recently reacquired North Schleswig region. The dual denomination, kroner and dollars, reflects the practical reality of the 1920s Danish-American agricultural remittance network: Danish emigrants in the American Midwest regularly sent funds home, and local institutions accommodated that flow by denominating instruments in both currencies at the prevailing rate of exchange.
North Schleswig had only returned to Denmark in 1920 following the post-WWI plebiscite under the Treaty of Versailles, and the region's financial infrastructure was still consolidating away from German-oriented institutions when this note was issued.
