KM# question

I have the 1999 Leif Ericson Millennium 2 coin proof set that contains the US $1 commemorative coin and a 1000 Kroner coin from Iceland. What are the KM #'s for these two coins? 
I am assuming that even though the coins were sold through the US Mint that the 1000 Kr is listed under Iceland.

<< <i>US coins don't have KM #'s >>
Well, that's only partially correct, depending on the year and type of issue.
The 17th Century, 2d Ed., lists U.S. Colonials, without numbers.
The 18th Century, 3rd Ed., lists everything with KM#s. (The Continental Dollar is KM#EA1)
The 19th Century, 3rd Ed., lists regular mint circulation issues without KM#s, but does list Hawaiian, Territorial Gold and Pattern coins with numbers.
The 2005 20/21st Century, 32d Ed., has KM#s for everything.
1878-1900 Morgans are numberless, 1901-21 Morgans are KM#110.
In the Krause-Mishler catalogs (referred to as "Krause" for short), each distinct coin type is assigned a "KM" number, so that instead of saying something like, "Great Britain Modified effigy George V bronze penny", you can merely say, "Great Britain, KM826", for example.
When you get your KM catalogs, it'll all make a lot more sense.
