Den Kongelige Grønlandske Handel Currency & Banknote Values

Banknote Book® Price Guide

The Greysheet Catalog (GSID) of the Den Kongelige Grønlandske Handel series of Greenland in the World Currency contains 130 distinct entries with CPG® values between $100.00 and $11,300.00.

These notes were issued by Den Kongelige Grønlandske Handel (The Royal Greenland Trading Company), a state-owned trading company based in Copenhagen, Denmark. All of the notes issued in the 1800s were handcut from sheets; as such variation in dimensions is to be expected. Also, any given note may be without watermark entirely, or with only a portion of the overall design visible.
