In 1907, Norway obtained a divorce from Sweden and became an independent kingdom under a Danish prince. Even before passing under Swedish rule in 1814, Norway had enjoyed a separate coinage from Denmark. The specimen shown here is from of a type struck 1877-1904 and was accompanied by a silver fifty øre and two kroner of similar design. Many dates are very scarce. This specimen was lot 21639 in Heritage sale 3010 (Boston, August 2010), where it sold for $2,990. The catalog description[1] noted, "Oscar II of Sweden Krone 1889, MS66 PCGS, handsome blue-green patina, a superb mint state example with an important pedigree [ex-Eliasberg]."
Recorded mintage: 200,000.
