Under a law passed 18. sept 1885 the National Tresury was able to issue notes in its own name. First notes appered in circulation on 21. Sept 1886. At first the notes were signed by hand. But around 1900 the name of landshofdingi was printed.  It is intresting that Denamark has never issued banknotes with pictures of its monarc. Only Iceland and Danish West Indies have done so.
