The news was announced by the Bank of Norway, Norges Bank, at 10.30 CEST on September 9. 2011. (Link). Mercury is in the first degree of Virgo, but separates from the opposition of Neptune. The corrupt Scorpio is on the cusp of the 2nd house with Mars in the sign of it's fall. The life of this coin is likely to be short-lived anyhow, because the 50-ore is likely to cease as legal tender on May 1. 2012.

Makes you wonder whether Mercury was retrograde at the time of production. Certainly the Moon's South node was in Gemini, which appears a corrurption of the reversed figure '11'.
