Copenhagen Town Hall 1903

Issued to commemorate the dedication of the "new" Copenhagen Town Hall in 1903  (although construction contiuned for 2 more years), which is still in use today.  The inscription reads LIBERA CIVITAS REGIA HAFNIENSAS ("free royal borough of Copenhagen") and SAA ER BY SOM BORGER (which translates VERY roughly as "the City belongs to its citizens".
