1973 Denmark 5 Ore Uncirculated Copper Coin 1973 Denmark 5 Ore Uncirculated Copper Coin KM# 859.1 This 1973 Denmark 5 Ore is an uncirculated copper coin featuring the crowned monogram of Queen Margrethe II on the obverse. This specific year is significant as it represents the final year of the 5 Ore denomination being minted in copper, as the coin was subsequently discontinued. The obverse displays the classic royal cipher flanked by the date, while the reverse shows the large numeral 5 alongside the country name. This uncirculated copper specimen retains its original reddish luster and sharp design details, making it a desirable addition for collectors of Scandinavian coinage or those seeking the final year of this historic copper series. 1973 Denmark 5 Ore Uncirculated Copper Coin KM# 859.1 Queen Margrethe II Condition: This 1973 Denmark 5 Ore is in uncirculated condition, retaining a significant amount of its original luster with minimal surface marks.

Historically, this coin was part of the standard circulation coinage during the early reign of Margrethe II. The strike type is a standard business strike, and while it has not been formally graded by a third-party service, it displays the sharp details expected of an uncirculated specimen.
