About this banknote
The Norges Bank issued the 2 kroner banknote in 1943 during World War II. This note was part of a series of "coin notes" introduced between 1940 and 1950 to address a shortage of metal for coinage during the war.
The front of the banknote features a dark brown design on a pink underprint, with the monogram of King Haakon VII and a crown. The note was printed by Waterlow & Sons in London.
