The Norwegian krone has been the currency of Norway since 1874 (when the Norwegian krone banknotes began to be printed, and Norwegian coins have been known since 995), when it replaced the Norwegian ...daler. For the first time, the inhabitants of Norway were able to pay with their own coins under Olaf I Trygvasson, who ruled the kingdom of the harsh Vikings at the end of the 10th century. It should be noted that in Norway the production of coins is still the prerogative of the king. Only in the 17th century did a full-fledged mint appear in Oslo, which used silver from the nearest mines of Christiania to mint coins. Somewhat later, the mint was moved to Kongsberg, where the largest explored deposit of precious metals was located. Even despite the fact that in the late 50s of the XX century. the mine was depleted, the yard continues its work in this city.
