Skilling (Scandinavian monetary unit)

The skilling was the Scandinavian equivalent of the schilling or shilling. It was used as a subdivision of the Swedish riksdaler, the Danish rigsdaler, the Norwegian rigsdaler, and the Norwegian speciedaler.

From 1625 to 1873, one Danish skilling (pronounced [ˈsɡ̊elˀeŋ]) was equivalent to  ¹⁄₉₆ of a rigsdaler. The word is still used colloquially for an unspecified but presumably low amount of money, sometimes modified to a very small amount ("lille skilling").

During the 19th century, one Swedish skilling (pronounced [²ɧɪlːɪŋ]) was equivalent to  ¹⁄₄₈ of a riksdaler. It was in usage between 1776-1855.

One Norwegian skilling (pronounced [²ʂilːiŋ]) was from 1816 equivalent to  ¹⁄₁₂₀ of a speciedaler, before that  ¹⁄₁₂₀ of a rigsdaler specie, or  ¹⁄₉₆ of a rigsdaler courant. It was introduced in Norway early 16th century and cancelled 1875.
