About this banknote
Norges Bank issued the 2-kroner banknote in 1922 to address a shortage of small change during the post-World War I period. This note was part of the "skillemyntsedler" series, introduced between 1917 and 1922, to supplement coinage in circulation.
The front of the note features an ornate frame surrounding the denomination, with promissory text, the value, and the signature of Chief Cashier P. Cederholm. The reverse displays the Norwegian coat of arms centered on a Saint Olav's Rose, with the denomination on either side. A total of 7,400,000 of these notes were printed, and they were demonetized on July 1, 1926.
