1847 KINGDOM of DENMARK Silver "RIGSBANKDALER" Scarce & Nice KING CHRISTIAN VIII
Description
This is a very nice, silver,
"Rigsbankdaler"
from Denmark. It was struck at the Copenhagen mint in 1847 during the reign of King Christian VIII.
Christian was twice a King. He was briefly King of Norway, from May to October of 1814, but he abdicated after Denmark was forced to give Norway to Sweden. Denmark had picked the wrong side during the Napoleonic wars and lost Norway in 1814 as a result. Christian became King of Denmark in 1839 and reigned until his death from blood poisoning in 1848. He was followed by his son Frederick VII.
Weight: 14.43 Gram, 30 Millimeter, .875 Silver.

The Coin:
A pleasant example of a scarce coin. It saw a few hands and passed as money for some little time. It shows light wear and has some of the normal circulation marks. And, like so many old silver coins, it has been cleaned at some time. As grading is subjective please see the pictures and judge for yourself.
