Slovakia 1 Koruna 1942 Copper-nickel
According to all the information I have it is a mintmark for the Kremnica mint.

it stands for extra krunchy so don't do the underdog routine or you will need a dentist
I tried to find a mention of this mark in various sources, but these attempts were unsuccessful. Well, let it be Kremnica Mint.
Yes, it's a tough nut, but sometimes you want to know what's inside.
So, I managed to find confirmation that this is exactly the mark of the Kremnica mint.
The "Kr" mark was approved on 10.24.1940.
Source – the book “Československé vojenské letecké odznaky” (Sehnal Jiří, Palička Radek, 2013).
Kind of surprised that Slovakia was still minting coins in nickel in 1942 and hadn't switched over to zinc like so many Axis controlled countries did.
