Surrounding the portrait is the inscription “FREDERIK X DANMARKS KONGE”, meaning “Frederik X, King of Denmark”. The portrait reflects Denmark’s newest monarch and marks a new chapter in the country’s numismatic history following his accession to the throne in 2024.

The design is clean and contemporary while maintaining the royal traditions that have long characterised Danish coinage.

Reverse Design

The reverse displays the Danish royal coat of arms beneath a detailed crown.

The shield contains traditional heraldic symbols associated with the Kingdom of Denmark, including representations linked to Denmark’s historic territories and royal heritage. The year “2025” appears on either side of the coat of arms, while the denomination “20 KRONER” is displayed prominently below.

The design creates a strong connection between Denmark’s monarchy, history and national identity.

The Danish 20 Krone Coin

The 20 Krone denomination was introduced to provide a higher-value circulating coin suitable for everyday use. It remains popular for retail transactions, transport payments and vending machine purchases.

Its larger value reduces the need for lower-denomination coins while providing a durable alternative to lower-value banknotes.

The coin’s golden appearance helps distinguish it from smaller denominations and makes it easy to identify in circulation.

King Frederik X on Danish Currency

The 2025 issue is among the first Danish circulating coins to feature King Frederik X.

Following the tradition established by previous Danish monarchs, the king’s portrait appears on the nation’s coinage as a symbol of continuity and constitutional monarchy. Danish coins have featured reigning monarchs for generations, making them a visual record of the country’s royal history.
