Comment
Prev. KM#M60Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ⅓ Riksdaler coin commemorating Charles XIV Johan's coronation is that it was minted in 1818, during a time when Sweden was experiencing a period of political and economic change. The coin's design, featuring an image of Charles XIV Johan, was meant to symbolize the new monarch's commitment to the country's prosperity and stability. Despite being made of silver, the coin was not widely accepted in circulation due to its relatively low value, and many were melted down for their precious metal content. Today, the coin remains a sought-after collector's item, offering a unique glimpse into Sweden's rich numismatic history.
