Greenland 50-ORE (KM7)

Polar Bear

Polar Bears live at the top of the food chain at the top of the world in five countries: Canada (over half of them), Greenland, Norway, Russia, and the United States (Alaska). They do not live in the southern polar region where penguins live.

As a Danish colony (1921-1953) Greenland has only issued four different coins, all featuring the Polar Bear. This coin was issued one year only, in 1926.
