This specimen was lot 3098 in Sincona sale 80 (Zurich, October 2022), where it sold for 575 CHF (about US$689 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted, "NORWAY, Oskar II. 1872-1905. 20 Kroner 1886, Kongsberg. Good extremely fine." 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 1879-86 and 1902 and was accompanied by a gold ten kroner of similar design. Gold coinage ceased in Norway with the twenty kroner of 1910.
