Bjørnøen A/S was a Norwegian company that held a commercial concession on Bear Island — the remote Norwegian territory halfway between Svalbard and the North Cape — and issued its own scrip currency for use by workers at its coal mining operation there. These notes functioned as a closed-loop wage and canteen system, never intended to circulate outside the island's small labor force.
The 1923–1924 issues are genuinely rare survivors. Bear Island's mining venture collapsed quickly, the workforce was small to begin with, and most scrip of this type was redeemed, lost, or simply destroyed when operations wound down.
