Comments
Total 17 400 000 printed Under the early Norwegians notes, the small denominations was considered to be removed from circulation (1 Specedaler & 5 Kroner). But due to the two world wars, they had to make 1 and 2 Kroner notes, because of the shortages of metal and silver especialy.The nicknames of these notes were an ecko of the Oktober Revolution, with the green one kroner being a “bolsjevik” and the 2 called “Røde gardister” (Red gardists).
