Original – 50 Øre (1874), first year of issue for the Greenlandic krone. The uniface note (valued at half a krone) was issued in Denmark for use in Greenland. The note depicts the royal monogram of Christian IX of Denmark on the left and a small crowned polar bear on the right. More recent issues (just shy of being free of copyright) depict a larger polar bear.

Reason: High quality image of the first issue of Greenlandic krone (1874), scarce image, high EV.
Articles in which these images appear: Greenlandic krone
FP category for this image: Currency
Creator: Kingdom of Denmark for use in Greenland.

Question - Looks like a good scan, but isn't it missing EV if we only show one side? Mattximus (talk) 22:10, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
