Additional information

Pattern coins from the Royal Danish Mint rarely surface in the trade, and this 1983 bronze trial for the 25 øre is no exception. The denomination itself was discontinued in 1990, meaning this pattern preceded a coin that had fewer than seven years of production life remaining — a short runway that likely influenced how conservatively the type was ultimately struck for circulation.
