A coin I found at the last show. I like the die centering dot on the obverse/reverse.
The design with the crowns is interesting. It will be fun to research this one further.

KLurt, that 1/4 skilling looks good enough to eat, especially if you like chocolate, and I do!
The dot on both dies is great, if you also get the planchet centered.
I don't think the three crown have any rekligious significance, but it they do, it could be the same as the Chatolic Holy Trinity.

The obverse with the three making and the dot look like a happy face. Cool Cool Cool
