Zostały one wybite przez Mennicę Królewską (Wielkiej Brytanii) na prośbę norweskiego rządu na uchodźstwie. Miały one trafić do obiegu na wyzwolonych obszarach po lądowaniu aliantów. Ponieważ jednak siły niemieckie poddały się pokojowo w 1945 roku, żadna z monet nie została nigdy wprowadzona do obiegu. Praktycznie wszystkie monety zostały odsprzedane Mennicy Królewskiej i przetopione. Zachowano około 10 000 sztuk każdego nominału. Pełne zestawy składające się z trzech różnych monet emigracyjnych były sprzedawane do 1970 roku, jednak większość monet nie jest w posiadaniu prywatnym. Wśród norweskich kolekcjonerów monety te noszą przydomek "monet londyńskich", ponieważ rząd emigracyjny miał siedzibę w Londynie.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

These were minted by the Royal Mint (of the United Kingdom) at the request of the Norwegian government-in-exile. They were intended to circulate in liberated areas upon an allied landing. However, since the German forces surrendered peacefully in 1945, none of the coins were ever placed into circulation. Practically all the coins were therefore sold back to the Royal Mint and melted. Approximately 10 000 of each denomination were retained. Full sets consisting of the three different exile coins were sold until 1970, however, a majority of the coins are not in private possession. Amongst Norwegian collectors the coins go by the nickname "London coins" as the government-in-exile were seated in London.
