The Denmark 10 ore with km#795 are in the numista database all listed with metal 0.400 silver.

https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces5567.html

But the ones with km#795.1 should be listed as metal Bronze.

nope - that's correct as it is.
Krause catalog says silver, Schön catalog as well.

it does not look like bronze.

Please have a look at the following page from Krause 1800-1900 (Fourth Edition)

Hi,
one more mistake on World Coins Catalog...
I've got the two varieties of these coins (KM#795.1 and KM#795.2), and surely these coins are silver made.
The only differences are the engraver's Initials.

10 Ore was too high face value to be made of bronze.

Regards
