Øre

Øre is the one-hundredth subdivision of the Norwegian krone and Danish krone currency units. Compare to the cent. The plural and singular are the same.

Since 1993, the only Norwegian coin in use with a nominal value below 1 NOK is the 50 øre coin. (The 10 øre coin was announced deprecated at 23 February 1992 and deemed obsolete one year after that.) See the article about the Norwegian krone for more information.

The corresponding subdivision of the Swedish krona is called öre .
