Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ⅔ Skilling Banco - Carl XIV Johan 1835-1843 coin from Sweden is that it was minted during a time of great economic change in the country. The coin was introduced in 1835, and it was the first coin to be minted in Sweden that was not made of silver. This was a significant departure from the traditional silver-based currency that Sweden had used for centuries, and it marked a shift towards a more modern, industrialized economy. The use of copper in the coin's production also reflected the increasing importance of mining and industry in Sweden during this time period.
