Denmark — Silver 2 Kroner 1912, Death of Frederik VIII

A royal-mourning commemorative struck in the accession year of Christian X, marking the death of Frederik VIII — who reigned only six years (1906–1912). Certified high-grade examples trade at auction, and the type is a natural companion to the 1903 and 1906 commemoratives in a Danish 2-kroner set.
