I have this coin but it is the dimensions of the 1941 5 ore aluminium 27mm instead of 22mm. Any one know about this, is it recorded that they used the 1941 die ? or is it an error in the catalogue listing !

Hi Tony, can we see the other side of your coin? And perhaps the weight and a link to the catalogue page?

I think it is the entry in the database which is wrong. I had had this coin and it is 27mm not 24. And if it have the good weight it confirm the error.
I correct it.
