About this banknote
The Danmarks Nationalbank issued the 20-krone banknote on 11 March 1980 as part of the 1972 series, which was introduced to modernize Denmark's currency. This series featured portraits by the Danish artist Jens Juel (1745–1802) on the obverse and native animals on the reverse.
The obverse of the 20-krone note displays a portrait of Pauline Maria Tutein, painted by Jens Juel. The reverse features two house sparrows, drawn by illustrator Gunnar Andersen (1919–1981). The watermark consists of a painter's palette with brushes and the number 20. This banknote was withdrawn from circulation on 10 April 1990 and replaced by a coin.
