Look, tilt, feel

Floating ring

In the bottom-left corner of the note there is rectangle containing a ring. When you tilt the banknote in different directions the ring appears to float and you can see a play of colours. The denomination is also shown. See video

Anchor chain 

At the right side of the banknote you can see three segments of an anchor chain integrated into the paper. When you tilt the note back and forth, the chain appears to move or run out. The chain is featured on all the denominations except the 50-krone note. See video
