Identification note: Exact KM number and precise alloy/measurements not confirmed from images; composition assumed for this type. | Denmark 5 Øre (Frederik IX) dated 1964 with crowned FR IX monogram splitting the date on the obverse and, on the reverse, large 5 ØRE flanked by two wheat ears, DANMARK above, and heart mintmark with initials C•S below matches the small bronze type struck 1960–1971: KM-848.1. Numista lists 1964 under KM# 848.1 with the wheat-stalk reverse and CS below (bronze, 24 mm, 6 g). See https://en.numista.com/1000 (KM# 848.1, year 1964). NGC’s World Coin Price Guide confirms the same type and design details for KM# 848.1, including a 1964 entry: https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/denmark-5-%C3%B8re-km-848.1-1960-1971-cuid-1045640-duid-1237198. This rules out the contemporaneous larger zinc issue KM-843.2 (1950–1964), which lacks the wheat-stalk reverse and has different specs. Dimensions were not measured here but the observed design and date are sufficient for exact attribution. ([en.numista.com](https://en.numista.com/1000))
