The first Norwegian geocoin - a crown from 1950.

About This Item

The geocrown

More than 50 years old, this kind of coin is no longer circulating in the markets, but now circulates as a Geocoin. It is larger and heavier than today's Norwegian krone. Minted under Haakon VII, Norway's king from independence in 1905 to 1957, it carries his ambition: Alt for Norge.
Please do not keep the coin, but allow it to tour geocaches in Norway as a reminder of the upcoming independence centenary.

Thought it would be the perfect ambassador of Norway in our Fort Knox cache whose theme is money. Following note accompanying it, also thought it wanted to travel as much as possible and not necessarily stay in Norway (had not read note in the web site). It will now have an international mission!
