Commemorative coin to mark the 70th birthday of Her Majesty Queen Margrethe II on 16 April 2010.

A commemorative coin will be issued to mark the 70th birthday of Queen Margrethe II. This is in keeping with the Danish tradition of issuing commemorative coins to mark special events in the royal family.

The commemorative coin will be presented at Frederiksborg Castle in Hillerød 15th March 2010 and can then be viewed on a special exhibition in the palace museum in the period 10th April - 1st August 2010.

A new portrait of the Queen

The motif of the obverse of the coin is a new portrait of the Queen by the sculptor Lis Nogel. The new portrait is also to be used on the ordinary 10- and 20-krone coins from 2011 onwards. The reverse was designed by Ronny Andersen, Royal Armorist, and shows the royal coat of arms set against a background of daisies – a reference to the Queen's nickname, Daisy.

1,000-krone gold coin

The gold coin is minted in 900 ‰ gold (Au) with a diameter of 22 mm, a weight of 8.65 g and a nominal value of 1,000 kroner. The recommended retail price for the gold coin is DKK 3,000 incl. VAT.

500-krone silver coin

The silver coin is minted in 999 ‰ fine silver (Ag) with a diameter of 38.0 mm, a weight of 31.1 g and a nominal value of 500 kroner. The silver coin is sold at its nominal value.

20-krone coin, ordinary version

1.2 million ordinary circulation coins will be minted and sold in rolls of 20 coins each.

20-krone proof version
The proof version of the 20-krone coin will be sold by the Royal Danish Mint only. The price for a proof coin, delivered in a box, is DKK 125 incl. VAT.

Pre-order

All the coins can be pre-ordered from 8 February 2010 at http://www.royalmint.dk and delivery will take place on an ongoing basis from 17 March 2010.
