Interesting fact
The ⅙ Riksdaler coin was minted during the reign of King Charles XIV Johan of Sweden, who was also the King of Norway from 1814 to 1818. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign, which aimed to standardize the currency system in Sweden and replace the old system of dalers and skilling. The ⅙ Riksdaler coin was equivalent to 1/6 of a Riksdaler, which was the main unit of currency at the time.
