 * Support – Interesting historical artifact. Perhaps we could get, our honorary Norwegian, to translate the text? (Christiania is the old name of Oslo.) Sca (talk) 14:38, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
 * The text on the document mentions Fem Rigsdaler Dansk (Danish) Courant and exchanges in Rendsborg and Aalborg. Though it is issued in Christiania are you sure it isn't Danish rigsdaler (I know it is a bit confusing round this time; but what makes it Norwegian? Is it just that it is issued in Oslo even though it has Dansk specified as the type?) Belle (talk) 15:57, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Belle- An excellent question (which made me sweat for a moment). The Danish 5 Rigsdaler Courant from 1807 looks notably different regarding design features (i.e., visibly different, has an anti-counterfeiting text vertically in the right margin, and was printed on blue paper). The images of other notes from this series are illustrated in the main reference book for world currency (that does not mean they are immune from making errors), under Norway. I do believe that the place (city) of printing/issuance plays a major factor in determining the origin of the note. For example, in the Norway section of the reference, a single denomination within a series of Norwegian notes was printed and issued from Copenhagen (24 Skilling of 1810), and it is listed in the Denmark section of the book. Can I enlist your assistance in translating the description above in the image file? --Godot13 (talk) 18:14, 6 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Support assuming accuracy of the above discussion about identification. Beautiful scan. --Pine✉ 19:01, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Support -- Yes, Godot is correct. Norwegians were not an own nation for a long time. Check out the article Denmark–Norway, the two states had the same monarch; while their boundaries, laws, and interests were distinct. The last period was from 1660 to 1814.
