1 KRONA Oscar II Sveriges Och Norges Konung
Believe to be Norway

Questions & Comments

Krone is Norwegian, not Krona - and it says on the coin "1 CROWN Oscar II of Sweden and Norway King" in Swedish.

*** " the United Kingdoms of Sweden and Norway, was a personal union of the separate kingdoms of Sweden and Norway under the Swedish monarch during the period between 1814 and 1905. Each continued their own separate laws, legislatures, administrations, state churches, armed forces, and currency but the king's palace and foreign embassies were in Stockholm, Norway was often directed by Swedish viceroys, and the kingdoms' unitary foreign policy was conducted through the Swedish foreign ministry until late in the 19th century."

So.. both Swedish, AND Norwegian - but the coin was minted in Sweden.
